Recently saw this one on ebay Germany:

http://cgi.ebay.de/SCHON-QUEUE-Juwel-EINZELSTUCK-unbespielt-Lochmaschien-/260749977199

and now this one:

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320679030620&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I think it is the same seller because of the discription/background of pictures.
The seller told me that he got this cue at a fair in Germany and is a genuine schon.
The model number is SPL 1-14.
He also said that there are 14 different models of this series.
BUT:
*Can't see a schon logo
*The inlays are not realy schon style
*The wrap is unusual for a schon

What do the experts think?
 
Edit: Just read the post. Nevermind.

I thought maybe he was using the word Schon as part of the german language.

Then I read the whole post.....sigh. So scatterbrained.
 
yeah.. schon in german means beautiful....

possibly they were modified schons?

Not an expert and I am not sure if I am right on this, but there was someone in Germany who bought plain Schon cues and did inlay work on them. I think the name Jewel was used because some of the cues were done with precious metals or gemstone inlays. I guess the Jewel logo is an inlay over the spot of the original Schon logo of the cues? But it has been many years ago and I am not sure if these cues are exactly the same or not.

Hey Joerg,
Very interesting information, never heard about that.
It would be great if the seller would have mentioned that, maybe he
doesn't know that either.

And yes, schon is part of the German language. To be absolutely correct
schön (with the dots) means beautiful, schon (without dots) means already.

Good post - this makes sense. It does look like a Schon if you remove the inlays.
