Rochard Pool 8 Ball Porcelain Limoges Box

Sink it last and the game is yours. The 8 ball, the most important ball on any pool table, is the shape of this porcelain Limoges box, a Rochard piece painted by hand and made in Limoges, France.

Calling the Corner Pocket

In eight ball, every shot leads up to that final call, and sinking it early ends the game in a hurry. That drama has made the 8 ball a symbol of pool halls everywhere, and this porcelain version brings it off the felt and onto the shelf.

Rack 'Em Up

Set it on a shelf above the cue rack, on a bar in the game room, or on a desk for the pool player who keeps a tournament schedule. It makes a fine prize for a league champion, a birthday present for a friend who never turns down a game, or a housewarming nod to a new basement game room. Rochard's careful hand painting gives it a polished finish, and anyone who has ever chalked a cue will appreciate the joke.
