Though the game of croquet had existed in some form or another for many years, it was John Jaques II who introduced of the game at the Great Exhibition in 1851 and brought the game to the attention of the world. It was said that "Nothing but tobacco smoke has ever spread so rapidly". John Jaques II won a Gold medal for this exhibit and cemented Jaques of London's place in sporting history. Nowadays there are croquet clubs all over the world, with millions of garden croquet players as well as professional players. It is with some pride that Jaques of London can claim to still be producing the highest quality croquet sets for over 160 years since that first presentation.
