FAQ’s

Product specification and care

Tokens are usually supplied with a clear or white protective backing film which can be easily removed once received.

Please note, that although most tokens are cut from 3mm acrylic this material is untoleranced, therefore there may be a deviation of up to 0.7mm -/+ in thickness. Where items are made from wood this deviation reduces to 0.4mm -/+ in thickness.

Please also note, although every effort is made to ensure these tokens are 'table ready' when you receive them, some tokens may require light cleaning.

Ruler, miniatures, cards and background seen in photography are for scale purposes only.
