Pool Table For Sale

Got a spare million pounds hanging around to buy a pool table? That’s only 1.66 million in US dollars. Chump change.

This little beauty is for sale at Harrod’s in London. It is a “royal” billiards, or rather snooker, table. It was built for Queen Victoria in 1887.

The black walnut body features carvings of past British kings and queens, flora and fauna, and quotations from Shakespeare and other prominent British poets and authors.

It features a matching cupboard which is also carved and decorared which historic people and events. I assume it will also hold your pool cues and other accessories.

If you have some space in the game room, you may want to check out this lovely snooker table. It could add some class to an otherwise humdrum existence.
