Snooker billlard pool table victorian complete set circa 1890 free shipping
By Burroughes & Watts
Located in Radstock, GB
FREE SHIPPING UK AND EUROPE This full-sized antique billiard or snooker table, crafted from solid English oak circa 1890, boasts exquisite detailing. It stands proudly on eight finely carved column legs, each adorned with decorative panels and motifs. The table features patented steel vacuum cushions, ensuring optimal playability, and is enhanced by friezes with roundel fittings. Accompanying the table is a matching scoring cabinet and a freestanding revolving cue stand. It is exceptionally rare to find a complete set like this, with all original accessories intact. The quality of the timber is remarkable, showcasing solid English oak throughout. This piece was likely commissioned for a grand county house of its era, making it a truly special find. English oak refers to a species of oak native to the British Isles, scientifically known as Quercus robur. It's highly valued for its durability, strength, and beautiful grain patterns. The wood has a light to medium brown colour, often with a slightly reddish or golden hue, and it darkens over time, developing a rich patina. In furniture making, English oak is prized for its ability to age gracefully and its resistance to wear and tear, making it ideal for creating long-lasting, sturdy pieces like antique billiard tables...
