This remarkable one-piece pool cue was produced by Rieper of New York around the turn of the century. Known for their distinctive craftsmanship, this specimen features an ebony four-point carved butt that showcases the artistry of the era.

The highlight of this piece is a “second to none” carved butt featuring a unique and intricate dot pattern. This specific texture not only provides a striking visual aesthetic but also offers a superior tactile grip that feels exceptional during play.
