This might be one of the most beautiful billiard tables ever created. The black walnut billiard table was commissioned for Queen Victoria's Jubileee Exhibition in Manchester in 1887 and created by Orne & Sons Ltd. The cushion friezes are decorated with ribbons of quotations from Shakespeare, Tennyson, Scott and Byron embellished with over fifty species of wild flowers and native British birds. Beneath the friezes are two long and six short panels depicting numerous countries. Between the panels and above each leg are carved portraits including William of Normandy, Henry I, Henry II, Henry III, Edward I, Edward II, Edward II, Edward IV, Elizabeth of York, James I and Charles I.

The matching cupboard is shaped like a door carved with seven panels. The upper four coats of arms show Victoria during the most important stages in her reign. The central horizontal section features Victoria and Albert beside Windsor Castle and the lower section depicts the royal residences of Holyrood and Caernavon. The second section slides open to expose a game with stars and colored counters, which can be rotated to form a scoreboard. The set is at Harrod's for £1 million.

I wouldn't want that in my house, it's ugly.

You COULDN'T have it in your house even if you wanted it.

Exactly, but even if it was free I wouldn't want it unless it was to bust it up and use it for firewood.

That thing is butt ugly haha

I'd rather have a shit load of these

The 1st thought that came to mind was "how are the quality are the cushions?"

I like it.

its ugly, but i bet the cupboard, that is a part of the set, is what drove the price up

that would totally work if u lived in a fucking castle. but then again. if u can afford that. u probably do live in a castle

You won't have a house anymore after buying that table

ugly

id rather cash out a million 1's and jump around in it

that thing is worth 2m? :lol

that's an extremely elaborate piece of woodwork, but definitely not my style.

mehh, no thanks i'll take the other pool table that lights up ahaha

I'd say so, based on the history. How many people can say they have such a table? If anything though, that table should belong in a museum.

wut?

^ On crappy tables (ie the ones in Richmond), the balls don't reflect anywhere close to the angle of incidence (ie what they teach you in highschool Physics) when they bounce off a rail.

Just saying that for $2m, this one better be pretty damn good. :p

no thanks

i only like the woodwork

$2M for that?
