Bob Manzino does some of the finest inlay work. It always appears original and in good taste. This cue looks elegant and refreshing. Thanks for posting.

Steve, you have amassed an amazing collection. Thanks for continuing to wow us with the new and impressive works of art.

Now that is a killer looking cue! Awesome joint collars, and beautiful inlay work.
Like that butt plate, nice and thin.
Bob is a pleasure to work with too!
 
i think the inlay work is awesome. don't understand why he could not make the short points as sharp as the long ones ?
 
When it comes to ornate cues and cue makers, Bob Manzino's name will come up. It's a beauty Steve......
 
Outstanding pool cue...


I truly believe Bob is the premier cuemaker today. Fresh designs, wonderful material combinations and flawless execution. Plus he actually "delivers" cues...


Thank you very much for sharing!


I'd love to see an updated Manzino family portrait! ;-)

Hey

Bobs write up for this cue........

Steve,
First off thank you for continuing to support the industry and all of us that create for you.
The inspiration for this design is derived from the ancient art of Bonsai. I chose quilted Sapelle for the base wood adding ebony and ivory
traditional spliced points which is where "tradition" ends. The inlay designs consist of multiple metals, pearls and ivory. Silver , 14k gold
and copper are dominant while brown lip pearl and white MOP cross the T's and dot the I's. Brown lip pearl is quite scarce these days
but was chosen for its warm tones blending perfectly with the sapelle wood and copper. I broke away from the standard again for the
joint adding ivory scroll work. Obviously I took some chances with this design with the intended effect bordering on asymetrical but still
maintaining a smooth flow throughout. Cue weighs 19.6 oz w/ both shafts. Custom nickel silver joint pin, elephant ear wrap and matching
joint protectors finish the cue. Thanks for another opportunity to express and add to your diverse collection.
Best Regards, Bob
