Aristocrat Snooker Table
OVERVIEW
The Aristocrat is engineered and built to the same exacting standards as the Aristocrat Tournament Champion. The obvious difference is the traditional style, dark stained mahogany throughout opposed to the Tournament Champion which is the distinctive mahogany and silver mix providing a more contemporary styling. The Aristocrat is provided with club cut slate and pockets as opposed to the tournament specification of the Tournament Champion – a little more forgiving for the casual player.
A traditional snooker table that has been in production for over 100 years. Iconic design and styling that has been often imitated, but never equalled. The Aristocrat is made in England by expert craftsmen – trained to accept nothing but the very best. Available with either V1 Steel Block cushions or the more traditional wood cushion.
All Riley Aristocrat tables are custom built to order. The Reason:
To ensure all timbers selected are in optimum condition when used in the manufacture of each table. We do not believe in stock piling tables in warehouses which fluctuate in temperatures which can lead to warpage or elements that can lead to degradation. Each table goes through a rigorous QC process. As each table is hand crafted this ensures a significant amount of checks are made as each table passes through the manufacturing process.

CRAFTSMANSHIP
Aristocrat Snooker Table
WOOD TYPE
Manufactured from solid Sapele Mahogany and selected solid woods throughout the unique Riley Cushion construction. Optionally, you can choose to have V1 steel block cushions on the 12' tables sizes: only the finest English made steels are used to build the cushion frieze. This ensures a precision response from each cushion.
Riley use a manufacturing technique in the cushions that has been the same for almost 100 years, often overlooked and dismissed as unimportant by competing brands. The Riley V1 steel cushion is the finest in the world.
Available in a variety of colour options.
SLATE
Riley use the finest Italian laser cut, precision engineered, 4.5 cm thick slate. We are one of only a few, if not the only manufacturer, to use this prestigious quality slate. No other slate meets these exacting standards.
Five pieces of slate cut and honed as one to produce a seamless slate playfield. No joints, no lips, just the smoothest, longest lasting playing surface on any snooker table.
Our table frames are designed with the unique Riley adjustable slate support system. These ensure that the slate is properly balanced to the frame and that the weight of the table is evenly distributed – this is key to keeping the table level over time.
Tournament cut slate means what is says: the slate and each pocket opening is cut very carefully by hand to ensure the frieze and slate fit together like a hand in a glove. There are only a few craftsmen around the World capable of constructing the processed finish, which is done completely by hand, knowhow and most importantly with unparalleled expertise.
CUSHIONS
Northern Rubber
Made in England
The rubbers used on the cushion and friezes (steels) are like caviar and champagne; they must go together to get the full benefit and enhancement to the playing experience.
Northern rubber is the world’s best, no question, and is standard on all Aristocrat tables, there is simply no way to improve upon this.
STEELS
Only the finest English made steels are used to build the cushion frieze. This ensures a precision response from each cushion. Riley use a manufacturing technique in the cushions that has been the same for almost 100 years, often overlooked and dismissed as unimportant by competing brands. The Riley Aristocrat steel cushion is the finest in the world.
Even to this day most professional players would choose Riley tables over and above any other.
POCKETS
The pockets are made using English cow hide leather to ensure maximum durability while at the same time providing a very fine quality leather that is soft to the touch yet does not crack under use. This hide is individually hand pressed piece by piece to ensure perfection is achieved in each of the pocket sections.
CLOTH
West of England 6811 Gold.
The finest cloth produced with the most glorious nap; bristly to the touch one way and as smooth as silk the other way.
Snooker tables are traditional and napped cloth is essential. The nap when used at the highest level will assist the most talented players as the nap when used properly will allow the ball when played at the correct pace to curve very slightly to aid potting the ball.
Whilst 6811 is the only viable cloth for a table of this stature, there is a reason it is the cloth used for all professional events around the World.
Other cloth colours available on request.
