12 Feb Pool Table Pockets
California House designs and manufactures a wide variety of pool table styles, but did you know that we also manufacture our own pool table pockets? Using 100% vegetable tanned leather, we cut, skive, mold, dye, sew, rivet, and assemble all our pockets right here in Sacramento.
Solid walnut is used in the bottom of every pocket for a satisfying “click” sound as the ball drops.
The Internal pocket, also called a drop pocket or enclosed pocket, has become the most popular style in modern tables today. This style presents a clean silhouette around the table and a more streamlined appearance. As its name implies, the internal pocket hides the leather pocket within the rails and aprons of the table. The internal pocket also decouples the pocket from the structure of the table, creating a stronger assembly.
We use steel rivet reinforcements at all critical seams and add extremely durable red nylon strapping to secure the pocket to the table.
