Alas, no, sir. The two sets pictured are the only balls we have made… a Poker Pool set released in 2023 and a Romanique set in 2024. Both sold out within a few weeks. 👍

Hey, Mr F. You promised to post up some images of your Raschig collection on the collecting thread a while back. Don’t forget, sir!

It would be a lie to say the foam insert was EVA for sure, Mr N, because I don’t know. It might be… we instructed our box maker to use whatever material he considered most suited for the job regardless of cost and left the decision to his best judgment.

Thank you, Mr N. We like to believe our boxes are amongst the finest of their kind ever made… solid walnut throughout, recessed brass hinges with stops, hidden magnetic closing and laser cut inserts. No expense was spared. We’re quite secretive about revealing the craftsman, sir, because we’re...

Here is a picture of the ball sets two colleagues and myself created and successfully sold… 👇

I have been an avid student of privately commissioned pool ball sets for the past twenty-five years… always with a view and ambition to see a design of my own make it into production one day. I watched with dismay as set after set was created by intrepid entrepreneurs, only to prove an...

Shall I mark you down for half a dozen of my new sets, Moe?

Not really, sir. Just thinking aloud about a set I’d quite like to see… inspired by talk of the Triball cutthroat design. Perhaps I’ll make it myself. 🙂

The hypothetical 16-ball set listed below would be interesting to me from both a playing and collecting perspective. Five yellows numbered 1-5. Five blues numbered 1-5. Five reds numbered 1-5. One black numbered 6. Ball and number font design in the classic style of Aramith Premiers would...

I could list about ten similar ventures that have failed in recent times, many of which ultimately cost their respective creators a whole heap of money unfortunately. It’s always sad to see projects like this falter in my view. Folks enter into these things with such enthusiasm and excitement...

I honestly don’t think there was anything disreputable or suspicious about Jack’s business plan, Moe. I just saw it as an ambitious (albeit perhaps a bit naive) project from a young, enthusiastic entrepreneur. I was rooting for him to succeed… so many similar ventures have failed in recent years.

I haven’t had any further email updates, which doesn’t bode well.

Hearty congratulations, Mr Piper. I am delighted that you have acquired a truly special set for your collection, dear chap. Let us hope it signals the beginning of a treasure trove of rare finds. 🙏

It wasn’t the greatest shot in the world, or even the most profitable, but after playing pool for over forty years one particular shot has stuck in my mind above all others… The match-winning ball (the 8) was hanging over the jaws of a corner pocket. Alas, the path to this black was blocked by...

Could you post up a picture please, sir?

This photograph by forum member bfriesth is possibly unique in capturing two complete Romanique I sets together… plus a Romanique II for good measure. I don’t believe a similar image can be found anywhere online.
