On the forearms you'll find five ebony points. Each ebony point also has a smaller ivory point, extending about a third of the way up the main point. At the bottom of the points is a turquoise arrow head design that looks a bit like a shield.

On the sleeve you'll find a similar design as well. The stained maple actually appears as windows through an ebony background. On the top and the bottom of each ebony strip is another turquoise arrow head, and in between are ivory sections which appear as X's or as an elongated bowtie shape.

A black Irish linen wrap with white specks completes the look.

In business since 1981 Schon employs a small in-house staff of full-time craftsmen who give great attention to quality. And because the cues are produced in smaller quantities designer Evan Clarke is able to personally finish and test each cue ensuring it stands up to the German meaning behind the name Schonâ�¦beautiful.
