Blatt Pool Tables: Custom vs. Semi-Custom

A pool table is more than just a game—it’s an investment in craftsmanship, style, and personal expression. At Blatt Billiards, we offer two distinct collections to cater to different needs and preferences: Custom Pool Tables and Semi-Custom Pool Tables. Whether you're looking for a one-of-a-kind heirloom or a refined, ready-to-order design, we have options that fit every vision. Custom Pool Tables: The Ultimate in Personalization Blatt Billiards custom pool tables are meticulously handcrafted, allowing you to bring your unique vision to life. Every aspect—from the wood selection to the finish, pockets, and even intricate carvings—is tailored to your specifications. Our artisans use time-honored techniques to ensure each table is a masterpiece. Key Features of Custom Pool Tables When you invest in a Blatt Billiards custom pool table, you're not just purchasing a game table—you're commissioning a handcrafted work of art tailored to your exact preferences. Fully Bespoke Design: Choose from premium materials, hand-selected finishes, and detailed craftsmanship. Artisanal Craftsmanship: Built using traditional woodworking techniques, ensuring exceptional quality. Customization Options: Select the wood type, rail style, inlays, leg design, and more. Lead Time: Custom tables take approximately 16-24 weeks for handcrafting. Rush or deadline orders are available upon review. With unmatched attention to detail and the ability to personalize nearly every element, a custom pool table from Blatt Billiards ensures a truly unique centerpiece for your space. Semi-Custom Pool Tables: A Balance of Style & Efficiency For those who want a high-quality pool table with a refined look—without the full custom design process—our semi-custom collection offers an excellent solution. These tables feature elegant designs, superior materials, and impeccable workmanship while allowing for select customizations like finish and cloth color.
