Building a Lady Shannon Pool Table

Here are some pics of the team delivering and installing a beautiful Porter Renaissance, Lady Shannon pool table to a home in Vail, Colorado.


On special tables like this, we primarily use hand tools versus power tools and no part of the table EVER touches the floor. Blankets and padding are used generously around the work area to protect every part of this beautiful, hand-carved masterpiece!

1904 Brunswick Saratoga

I haven't posted for a while, so I thought I'd update the blog with some of the most recent tables we have.

This is a beautiful 1904 Brunswick Saratoga pool table. Pool tables in this era were just made better. Prior to about 1960, Brunswick hand made their pool tables in the United States. They had actual "master craftsmen" who used to painstakingly build tables by hand and the quality was just better.

As some in the business know...if you want the best, you buy an Antique Brunswick!
