Dimensions of playing surface. Can be produced in any size and for any version of
the game.
Internal frame. To guarantee absolute stability and consistent, long-term playability, the
triple strength supporting frame is constructed from weathered timber which has been
seasoned over decades.
Exterior. Constructed from the finest and most sought after woods, almost entirely
solid. For this model we use Rosewood and Maple both for the base and for the special
ornamentation. Because there is such a high degree of handcrafting required, no two
models of this table are ever alike.
Finishes. All finishes are the handiwork of master craftsmen and joiners, and of
professional interior decorators.
Finish options. Each model belonging to our collection can have a particular finish.
Standard finish is natural wood varnished. Options can be: decorated patina, scratched
(Natural or coloured), Moka (wax finish), lacquered (in any colour), upholstered in
Velvet or in Leather. The complete handiwork of the manufacturing process allows us to
intervene in each phase of the construction, modifying at pleasure each detail that is no
involved in dynamics of the game.
Playing surface. Constructed from three layers of slate, each 5 cm in width, and
meticulously positioned directly onto the supporting frame using calibrating machinery
which is accurate to the thousandth of a centimetre.
Sealing. Varnishes and stains are applied in specially adapted workshops. Whether the
desired result is glossy or matt, particular care is taken to preserve the natural colour and
grain of the wood. Where certain woods require it, wax is applied.
Cloth. We use top quality GORINA and IWAN SIMONIS fabric in a choice of colours,
hand molding it to the slate and sides to ensure perfect fit and maximum durability over
time.
Heating. Whilst all playing surfaces may be fitted with heating elements, this is necessary
only where a billiard table will be exposed to moisture which might compromise the flow
of the game. In a room which is heated normally this risk falls away.
Removable wooden top. For this model we can provide a matching top which converts
the billiard table into an elegant dining or work surface.
Accessories kit. For the list of accessories, go to Equipment and Accesories section.
A highly covetable and very exclusive piece, the Imperiale boasts ornate handcrafted inlays
in Rosewood and Maple, executed by specialist cabinet makers. This billiard table is truly
unique and will lend refinement and grandeur to any environment.
