"The Rose" by *****BOB MANZINO******

I've never seen rose gold used in cues before. The contrast with the silver is stunning.
 
That is a stunning creation Steve. Bob's work is really out there. What gets me is the quality of the scrimshaw....just amazing. Does Bob do this himself?

Si
 
I love wrapped JPs!!!

WOW!!!

To me what makes this cue incredible is the way how it remains subtle despite all the inlays and shapes and rings. The colours are there and are noticeable - of course - but still, probably due to the way the rings were done, it's not so aggressive as some other ultra-fancy cues. This could very well be a new step in design and appearance, creating "loaded" masterpieces that reveal themselves slowly and not within a few seconds or minutes [<--- I'm still looking for MOP:)]

This has got to be my second favorite fancy cue from your collection - closely following that immense BB.

CONGRATULATIONS!
 
Another great cue!!I think it's cool how Bob incorporated the wrap into the JP's. Steve, you are the heart and soul of cue collecting, nice job.

Steve, another beauty for the collection, it never ceases to amaze me the incredible thought that has to go into these incredible works of art that these cuemakers are producing......... Again what a beauty and i hope the holidays where good to you sir........ Happy New Year........:smile:
 
hey

The choice on using the rose gold turned out to be just incredible. The look it gives next to the silver is just stunning, so much more in person. What has impressed me the most about all the cues I have recieved from Bob, is how he uses the entire cue for his canvas of art. The designs are allways from butt to tip, and they are so well proportioned on the entire cue. Add to that the impecable workmanship of his designs, and his choice of colors, always makes for a jaw dropping total piece of art.

Not taking away from the entire cue are those amazing rings with the exact same scroll work, done at just the right depth, to not have it overshadow anything else. It just compliments, as it should. The designs in the rings are all the same, but each is slightly smaller as they move from the butt to the tip.

This is one cue that the pics will never do it true justice.

It took me 5 minutes of holding this baby in my hands and turning every which way to just find the MOP........

also possibly the center (football shaped) inlays.

Good guess Jeff. The footbal shaped ones are the MOP. There is really no way to know by these pics.
