Cue new snooker table designs

North Lincs.-based cue sport table specialist, Elston and Hopkin is launching an exclusive range of snooker and American pool table designs for the first time into the UK, Ireland and Channel Islands.

The company has gained the sole rights to distribute tables from Italian company Ursus Biliardi, the range featuring identical copies of 19th century designs that are claimed to be favourites with interior designers all over Europe.

The tables are designed to be the stylish centrepiece of a room, but are also manufactured to the exacting specifications of functional snooker and pool tables.

The supporting frame is built from weathered timber and the surface is constructed from three layers of slate. 'Gorina' fabric finishes the design in a choice of colours and is hand-moulded to the slate and sides.

The range of tables available from Elston and Hopkin includes the Imperiale, which features ornate handcrafted inlays in rosewood and maple. The Centenario is a faithful reproduction of an early 19th century model available in rare and precious woods such as walnut, cherry, olive and amazaque.

Other models include the Giubileo, with elegant rounded legs, and the versatile Novecento, which can be embellished with ornate carvings or left clean and uncluttered as per the customer's specifications.

A unique feature of the tables is that because of the high degree of handcrafting used in their construction, no two tables are ever identical.
