Brunswick Billiards' Replica 1878 Table

Even the most steel-eyed hustler might pause for a moment before breaking a rack on the latest offering from Brunswick Billiards: a replica of the company's Exposition Novelty Table from 1878. The iconic pool-table manufacturer has produced scores of models since its founding (by a Cincinnati carriage maker) in 1845, but it is this one that Brunswick has chosen to reproduce in honor of its 165th anniversary. Beginning in October, the company will offer for sale 25 renditions of the exquisite 9-foot-long table -- at a cost of $39,999, including a matching cue stick and cue rack.

An award-winner in its day, Brunswick says, the Exposition Novelty Table artistically blended sophisticated nineteenth-century refinement with the aesthetic of a still largely untamed American West. It sits on beveled legs of solid white oak and is adorned with a variety of richly grained veneers, brass rosettes, and rail sights made from Asian water buffalo bone.

Brunswick Billiards Launches New Manhattan Table

Filed under: Decor

Pool tables may have a timeless history but it doesn't hurt to give an old game a fresh, modern look. With stainless-steel legs and a maple finished top the Manhattan is the contemporary of Brunswick Billiards' line of pool tables. They've been in business since 1845 so surely they know their stuff when it comes to billiards. Their new Manhattan table will cost you $16,999 but if you think of it as a family investment that will be cherished for generations (or a friendly past time that will make your pad the party location for years to come) it's not so bad.
