FAQs

A Victorian snooker scoreboard is a wall-mounted timber device featuring tracks with sliding indicators used to keep track of scores during billiards, snooker, or life pool games.

Antique scoreboards were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as mahogany or oak, incorporating brass sliding pointers, mother-of-pearl inlays, and gilded or hand-painted numbering.

Authentic Orme & Sons scoreboards feature stamped metal makers plaques or printed labels bearing the Manchester makers name, alongside characteristic nineteenth-century brass fittings and quality joinery.

An antique scoreboard can be displayed as statement wall art in a home bar, study, or hallway, adding historical texture and architectural interest above a sideboard or console.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a dry cloth and applying beeswax polish sparingly, avoiding chemical cleansers on gilded numerals or polished brass fittings.
