Eight Ball & Crossed Cues — Billiards Pendant Necklace
Every pool hall has that one player who never rattles under pressure. When the game comes down to the final black ball, she chalks her cue, leans into a steady bridge, and sinks the eight ball clean into the corner pocket before looking up with a grin. For the league night captain, the Tuesday night teammate, or the woman who grew up playing rack after rack in her dad’s basement, this piece is her signature.
Designed by founder Mia Vellamere and precision laser-cut in our Salado, Texas studio, Eight Ball & Crossed Cues pairs two tapered crossed pool cues behind a solid 1.3 mm (16-gauge) 8-ball medallion with crisp 0.4 mm gold-on-gold laser-etched ferrule bands, grip wraps, and the iconic figure “8.” Arriving on a custom-engraved solid blonde maple keepsake card inside our linen gift box, it is the ultimate trophy for the woman who runs the table.
