FAQs

An Edwardian billiard score cabinet is a specialised piece of games room furniture produced in the early 20th century to record scores for billiards, snooker, and life pool. Made by renowned makers such as Thurston & Co, these pieces integrated mechanical scoring rollers and slides with practical storage for billiard balls and equipment.

These cabinets were predominantly crafted from high-grade hardwoods such as English walnut, mahogany, or oak. The scoring components typically incorporated brass fittings, polished slate or wooden slides, and celluloid or bone markers for colour-coded scoring panels.

Authentic Thurston pieces often bear a stamped makers mark or an inset brass plaque displaying the address of Thurston & Co. Genuine Edwardian examples showcase precise cabinetmaking details, including fine dovetail joints, original brass drop handles, and smooth mechanical action on the scoring rollers.

A score cabinet serves as a focal point in a dedicated games room, home bar, or gentlemans library. Due to its combination of shelving, drawers, and cupboard space, it can also function as a unique drinks cabinet or decorative storage sideboard.

Dust the surfaces regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply high-grade beeswax polish along the grain to maintain the wood finish. Keep the cabinet away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent the timber from warping or the colour markers from fading.
