Rescued another Fanelli from the wild and brought it back to the east coast. Got a nice Whitten case to go along with the cue. Big thanks to Will Prout, always a gentleman and pleasure to transact with. Still on the hunt for more!

Incredibly beautiful butterfly cue. Paul elevated the art of the butterfly cue a good deal. No telling what he'd be making today if he was still here.

Beautiful cue. I think I have the little brother cue to it.

Added another Fanelli butterfly this week! LOVE these early wood veneer examples! Looking to add more to my collection, I have other cues to trade or cash!

Tracked down this 2006 example. Sorry about the terrible pics. Poor lighting in the local pool hall. Its beautiful in person and the leather wrap is silky smooth.

I really like the ebony/snakewood combination. Not sure why, but snakewood doesn't seem to be used as much as it used to about 10-15 years ago. With wood stabilizers it would seem like that would not have happened.

Ricky-
JimBo has one of the nicest Fanellis made to date. PH and ebony. Not sure he'd ever part with it but it couldn't hurt to ask. :)

The Fanelli twins...Pietro and Wanda, back together as it should be. Reunited and it feels so good.
