Just want to share this two players, the cue was made for my fellow pinoy who loves collecting cues, nothing is fancy but all for the beauty of the woods itself.
The first cue is made from top grade amboyna burl in my stock in the forearm with 6 ebony points and turquoise inlays, ebony buttsleeve with turquoise diamond inlays, black lizard skin wrap, ivory joint and buttcap with tiger image scrimshaw

The second cue features a butterfly designs, when he visited my shop and see this two unfinished cues,



he like the design on the top and wants the same look with another wood to be used, so we came up with this, ebony forearm with 4 snakewood points with veneers and alternate with snakewood butterflies likewise to the buttsleeve, wrapless segmented handle snakewood and buckeye burl at the center with ebony butterflies alternate with buckeye burl butterflies, ivory joint and buttcap with dragon image scrimshaw.

Here it is:











Thanks for looking and more powers to all,
Al

Hi Al, beautiful cues! The scrimshaw is really great looking also. Who is the scrimshaw artist or is this some ink transfer process?

Great work!
