You don't give enough info about the cue. The dice are 2 and 5 which adds up to lucky 7 but also represents 25 years. Ivory ferrules, snakewood radial pin joint, snakewood and cocobolo points with ebony forearm and butt. The ebony on the butt is so dark that it blends in with the black phenolic that Perry uses for his famous flared butt cap so you cannot see the line. The flare is not radical as it used to be but still enough to set it off. Under different light conditions the cue changes looks. Sometimes the red veneers make the ebony look like purple heart, others times you cannot see the cocobolo points. Lots of silver and ivory. It also has a nice feel due to elephant ear wrap and 25 years of cue making. Also one of the few cuemakers that was asked to make a cue for display in the Smithsonian.
How do I know all of this? Because I am the proud owner of one. Bought mine sight unseen and wasn't disappointed. Perry wanted something special to celebrate 25 years. A lot of cue for the money and the pictures don't do it justice.
