  • Chevillotte History

Chevillotte - History from 1860 to Present Day:

Pool Tables > Chevillotte Pool Tables > Chevillotte History

In 1860, Eugene Chevillotte started a travelling business which produced and sold special goods for cafés.

 

Here you can see the original Chevillotte shop, along with the transport of choice for the day. A far cry from today's busy streets of Paris.

 

chevillotte-old-shop.jpg

At the beginning of the 20th century, Chevillotte's line of billiards products experienced a rapid development, due to the increased popularity of the game in France.

 

At the time there were more than a thousand billiards 'Academies' in Paris, compared with less than ten today.

 

This poster captures the fashionable times for the game of carom, played by the aristocracy both male and female. Then, as it is today, a game of pool is a great social sport, enabling all ages to enjoy the game with friends and family.

 

The Chevillotte showroom is still in the same location in Paris: 27 Boulevard Malesherbes 75008 Paris

 

 

In 1960, Chevillotte introduced their Europa model, and today the latest revision of this model is still the reference table for competition.

After 1970, Chevillotte began to focus on private individuals and their own personal pool table requirements.

Chevillotte Logo
The Chevillotte production factory in Orléans, built in 1978, remains an exemplary production facility in Europe.

 

Today, Chevillotte products are available in more than 40 countries. Using modern technology while still respecting the methods and trade secrets of its founders, Chevillotte remains the standard for superior quality and fine craftsmanship.

 

The showroom in Paris provides a stunning environment in which to showcase the range of pool, billiard and carom tables which are available.

 

The ground floor provides a selection of pool tables, cues and other accessories, and a pinball machine. There is also a selection of the complementary furniture which is available, such as a chess board, card table, and lamp table.

Downstairs in the basement there are two rooms. The first showcases the craftmanship which Chevillotte still maintains to this day enabling them to restore antique tables from the 19th century to their former glory.

In the other basement room is a Chevillotte Périgord billiard table. As you can see in the photgraph the table is fitted with the carom inserts.

 

At the far end of the room is another example of the supreme workmanship available. The fitted cabinets and bar area are part of the bespoke design service which is available. Chevillotte are able to undertake all manner of work of this type. Please contact us on 0800 622 6464 if you would like to discuss your own requirements.

 

 

perigord-room-3.jpg

 

Upstairs on the first floor there are 5 rooms showcasing the current range of tables available. There is a total of 7 tables on display, all allowing room for you to give them a test drive.

The Chevillotte showroom provides the best location we have visited, having travelled the world visting manufacturers and retailers alike.

 

If you are in Paris it is well worth paying them a visit. If you are a customer who has purchased a Chevillotte table you are granted free membership of their billiard club which is situated in the basement. You can book a time slot to be able to play either the Périgord which is shown above, or the renovation tables in the other room.
