Beautiful Balls.

Nice one mate, they look great.

Thank you very much, sir.

If you ever see these pool ball sets for sale, gentlemen, buy them and give me a call.

The Romanique I set on the right is worth over $2k.

Perhaps a lot more if you can get two collectors bidding against one another.

Same for these…

And these…

Lovely objets d'art.

It might surprise you to learn, gentlemen, that billiard ball collecting has soared in popularity in recent years.

I have seen some sets sell for five figures.

This thread got me thinking.... what happens, for example, to the balls used for the World Snooker Championship Final?

Sold for charity? Presented to the champion? Thrown at the sub-prime, crisp packet rustling deviants who occupy the Crucible?

I believe they are sold, dear chap.
