A 7ft snooker dining table by E.J Riley of Accrington, made in the 1930s from solid African mahogany. It has a solid brass rise and fall mechanism to take the table from dining height to playing height. This is a beautiful antique snooker table.
The photograph shows a 6ft version of the same model that we refurbished a year or so ago. This table will be refurbished to the same very high standard.
The refurbishment
The table is refurbished in our Accrington workshop by ex-E.J Riley employees. It came to us without its original top, so a new three-piece mahogany veneered table top will be made for it.
