ARIEL CARMELI
AMBOYNA BURL AND EBONY
FANCY SIX POINT WITH PAUI SHELL
|
Here is a beautifully designed cue by Ariel, and most importantly, perfectly built. His excellent construction skills, marked by tight work and low tolerances for imperfection, always result in sticks that play as well as they look.
|
It's constructed of exquisitely figured amboyna burl and deep black ebony, with six refined points and lots of inlay work.
|
He uses shimmering paui shell from the south seas, along with white elforyn for all the inlay work.
|
He inlays a spearhead of paui shell and elforyn in the base of each of the amboyna burl points.
|
He stacks veneers of white, black and white on all the points.
| |
|
The design on this butt sleeve is delicate, and at the same time, striking.
|
It's built with one of Ariel's trademark ring patterns - stylized white diamonds wrapped with two silver rings. He uses it throughout the cue at all locations.
| |
This cue is a real show-stopper. The woods are gorgeous, the design is ornate, and the work is as near perfect as it gets. The points are long, sharp and even.
|
Another look at this luscious butt sleeve and especially, at this splendid burl.
|
The handle is wrapped with a very pretty black Spanish bull leather.
| |
He builds it with a 3/8X10 steel pin in a flat-faced, elforyn joint. The matching white elforyn butt cap is engraved with his "AC" logo.
|
It comes with two of his premium maple 13mm shafts with Juma ferrules and Triangle layered medium tips. It weighs 18.7 ounces (15.0, 3.7, 3.7) and is 58 inches long. This is a gorgeous cue that plays like a dream.
