Longoni (company)

[1][2] The company, founded by Alessandro Longoni in 1945, is based in Mariano Comense, Italy.

[3][4] Over the years, several professional players, including Dick Jaspers and Niels Feijen, have helped design and develop new lines of Longoni carom and pool cues, respectively.

[5] A hallmark of Longoni cues is their often unusual butt designs – including octagonal cuts, sewn-in leather strips, and intricate inlay ornaments.

Longoni's two top lines of pool cues, the Classica and Silver series, range from approximately US$1,500 to $6,000.

Longoni supports no-ivory cue production by exclusively using ferrules made of phenolic resin.
