An antique Victorian mahogany snooker scoreboard designed for wall hanging in a traditional games room, study or billiard room. The dark brown timber construction incorporates a central grey slate panel flanked by sliding life pool scorers with star inlaid markers and mother of pearl buttons, alongside rotating brass pointer markers positioned above and below the slate board. Additional details include polished brass sliding pointer fittings, small brass hanging loops at the top, turned coloured wooden marker knobs on the sliding bars, and stepped architectural mouldings framing the upper and lower edges of the wooden cabinet. It measures 63.5 cm high, 114 cm wide and 9 cm deep. Today, this piece serves as both a functional scoring accessory and a decorative wall feature in a home games room, library, or entertainment space. It mounts securely to a narrow wall space, bringing period character and traditional craftsmanship to an interior. The rich timber tones and contrasting brass hardware coordinate easily with existing antique or classic furniture arrangements.

An antique snooker and life pool scoreboard is a wall-mounted scoring device manufactured in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It features sliding markers, numerical tracks, and slate panels used to calculate scores and track lives in cue sports.

These scoreboards were predominantly crafted using hardwoods such as mahogany or oak, alongside cast brass for brackets and pointers, slate for chalking scores, and bone or celluloid for pointer knobs and markers.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-turned wooden markers, original brass fixings with natural oxidisation, hand-painted lettering or mother-of-pearl inlays, and natural wear around high-use sliding tracks.

An antique scoreboard functions effectively as statement wall art in a home bar, study, or hallway, offering rich wood tones and historic interest that complements classic and eclectic schemes.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish periodically. Slate panels should be wiped clean with a dry or lightly dampened cloth, avoiding chemical solvents on the brass and wood.
