Carved large bulbous reeded leg full size snooker table for sale . £750 . May be a George Wright manufacture

May be a George Wright manufacture . as he used this leg design often of reeded bulbous legs .
The table has very large circumference legs , which are carved reeded type as used by George wright .
there are scrolls at each side of each leg , and you also have scrolls and a Scallop shell carved design in the frame work too .
Ignore the Arthur Perry & Son plaque this is a later re-rubber plaque put on by Perry when they carried out a refurb of cushion rubber ,and it is advertising A Reliance cushion rubber .
A very nice looking table with buttons on the cushions rather than a slide in panel .
I would say circa 1920s
My client is looking for £750 for the table with accessories as shown .
The price is for the table as is on site , and any removal costs will be the buyers responsibility .
I am sure the table requires a re-cloth , looking at the photos too .
But is priced correct at just £750 .as any buyer will need to factor in removal costs and a re-cloth .
this table done up by a billiards firm would be in excess of £5k to £6.5k .

For sale 9ft Export Birmingham billiards Snooker dining table , Fixed Height .

We have a client who wishes to sell their fixed Height Snooker dining table with removable dining tops .
The table is in good condition polish wise but the cloth may require a new one .
Very expensive when bought New , custom made to clients specs of a lower than normal table , by about 1 to 1.5 inches .
Thus removing the need for a complicated raise and fall system that often fails with slate sagging , a problem the larger the span is and 9ft is a long span ,which is normal for some tables made today .

Believe me there is more level problems caused by raise and fall snooker dining tables than fixed height ones .
this one has not got that system it is fixed height .
My Client wants £1000 for it and he is in the Gloustershire area of the UK close t Junction 11 of M5
this table I have been informed is a sectional slate bed of good thickness quality and not your normal Dining thin slate model .

A dining snooker table from Birmingham billiards in 9ft form today would cost you £5600 upwards depending on leg style and type of slate used .

So taking into account Relocation fees to add and a possible re-cloth
The table is £1000 as is on site with accessories , so priced to sell .
If you require a costing for Dismantle and Blanket wrap loading , and delivery unload and set up , plus a re-cloth …then please contact us at GCL Billiards for a price , I would require your full post code and if on ground floor install ?

***You are Buying the table direct from the seller with no middle men fees or finding fees involved .
