1773 Billiards Ball Rack

Reclaimed Barrel Billiards Rack — Colonial Parlors, Cooper’s Craft, Gentleman’s Leisure

In the game rooms and tavern parlors of early America, billiards stood as both pastime and social ritual — a measure of focus, skill, and friendly challenge shared among neighbors, officers, and traveling gentlemen. This wall-mounted billiards ball rack honors that heritage, restoring true cooper’s oak to its rightful place in fellowship and recreation.

Hand-crafted from authentic reclaimed bourbon barrel staves, each piece carries the marks of honest American labor — char, grain, and cooper impressions earned through years in the rickhouse. The warm curvature of each stave is preserved, creating a naturally arched form only fire-bent wood can provide. Smoothed by hand, sealed to protect its legacy, and mounted with care, it presents billiard balls like the display of fine goods in a merchant’s cabinet or officer’s club.

Designed to rest proudly on the wall beside a billiards table, home bar, whiskey room, or gentleman’s retreat, this rack is as functional as it is storied. It organizes your set with dignity, keeps play ready at any moment, and brings the quiet presence of colonial tradition into modern recreation spaces.

A cooper’s barrel once aged America’s spirit. Now it holds the tokens of friendly competition and evening leisure.
