Billards RIVET Fabrication. Ateliers
Billards RIVET Fabrication is a workshop in Lyon where billiard tables are handcrafted using traditional methods. The space includes dedicated areas for woodworking, felt application, and assembly, where skilled workers carefully construct each table from start to finish.
The workshop was established as a family business and grew into a recognized maker of quality billiard tables over many decades. The company has maintained its production methods while adapting to changes in craftsmanship and customer demand.
This place reflects the craft tradition of French billiard-making, with techniques that have been passed down through the family over time. Visitors can see how artisans keep this heritage alive through their daily work and attention to detail in every table they build.
Visitors can tour the workshop and watch artisans at work to see how tables are made from beginning to end. It is best to call ahead to confirm visiting hours and to learn when production activities are most active.
Each billiard table is customized with individual details based on the buyer's specific requests and the type of play they prefer. This personalization makes every table a made-to-order piece rather than a mass-produced item.
