Custom Billiards Cues can help give you the edge in a game and have a class and style all their own. But how do you know you have the finest pool cue on the market? That’s where Joel Hercek, custom billiard cue maker, comes in. Hercek builds each and every single cue using the coveted full-splice technique, which is rarely used in modern times due it’s time-consuming difficulty. One can tell simply by viewing photographs of Joel’s work that this technique makes all the difference in these high-end yet subtle cues.

These custom pool cues are made from the finest materials including pre-ban elephant ivory and exotic hardwoods, spliced together to create stronger cues with superior balance, as well as precious metals and stones. The cues start at $20,000 and there is currently a wait list of 10 years, since Hercek can only produce 30 cues a year due to the intricate technique. These exclusive custom pool cues deserve to play on only the finest pool tables and if you’re in the market Ballerhouse can help you find the perfect custom pool table at no charge.

Innovation is prevalent in nearly every aspect of kitchen design.  But for some reason, few designers worth their weight have focused much attention on the home bar.  Philip Watt’s Mercury Bar Stool defies this trend, delivering some pretty sweet cast aluminum curves and a fresh looking re-cast antique tractor seat.  Hook up a few for your bar and you’re guaranteed to make a statement.  Each will set you back £799.25, just under $1,300.

Note: For all of our BallerHouse fans, we’re back and will be posting more frquently.  Summer is over, the luxury economy is rebounding, and it’s time to start ballin’ again.

Over a year after successfully launching the BeerTender, Heineken is kicking its portable beer machine up a notch with a limited edition release of three “Must Edition” BeerTenders.  Sporting a Ferrari-style design theme, the limited edition BeerTenders don material combinations like wood and leather; leather and steel; and rubber composite.

Produced by the SEB Group, the limited edition BeerTenders have been designed to hold a 5-liter draught keg, like their less fancy counterparts.  And while they were designed with commercial use in mind, we can’t help but to think Heineken’s Must Edition machines would look a lot more appropriate in your home bar.

Want one of your own?  Expect to drop $638/€ 449.
