Longoni AmaliaCarom 3-Cushion Cue -No Wrap -
Octagonal Handgrip -with Luna Nera FE71 Shaft
For over 80 years, Longoni has represented Italianexcellence in billiards. Founded in Mariano Comense, near Milan, Longoni is afamily-owned company known worldwide for precision, craftsmanship, design, andreliability. Longoni cues are still produced entirely in Italy under thesupervision of the Longoni family and are trusted by many top internationalplayers.
The Longoni Amalia is a Signature carom cue developedfor Frédéric Caudron, one of the most accomplished players in professionalcarom billiards. Introduced in 2019 after several months of testing, the Amaliajoined the Frédéric Caudron line as an additional model rather than areplacement for the Armonia.
One of the defining features of the Amalia isLongoni\'s famous octagonal handgrip, giving the butt a distinctive feel in thehand as well as a recognizable visual identity.
The current version is crafted in URAL black hornbeam,with an internal hornbeam-based construction. Elegant Juma Desert rings andinlays are complemented by real mother-of-pearl round inlays, creating arefined contrast against the dark URAL wood.
This version is equipped with the Longoni VP2 Titaniumjoint, providing a precise, firm, and durable connection between butt and shaftwhile contributing to the forward-balanced feel associated with Longonimetal-joint cues.
Each Amalia is individually identified by ahand-signed number and, as part of Longoni\'s Signature / Custom Pro range, issupplied with an official Longoni certificate of authenticity.
This configuration includes one Longoni Luna Nera FE71graphite shaft, specifically developed for 3-cushion carom billiards andcombining an Eiffel 71 profile with Longoni\'s advanced carbon-fiberconstruction.
Correct Luna Nera Maintenance
Because of the specialized materials and technologiesused in the Luna Nera shaft, the shaft must not be modified in any detail,including its diameter. Modifications may damage the shaft and will void thewarranty.
For proper maintenance and preservation of thecarbon-fiber surface, Longoni recommends using only the dedicated LongoniNuvola cleaning product. A Longoni Nuvola Cleaning Wipe is included with this configuration.
Never use polishing compounds or abrasive materials onthe carbon fiber. Abrasive treatment can damage the shaft surface and mayrelease carbon dust, which can be harmful if inhaled.
Octagonal Handgrip
The Amalia features Longoni\'s signature octagonalhandgrip, one of the most distinctive design elements in the Longoni caromcollection.
Instead of a conventional round handle, the grip isshaped with eight defined surfaces. This gives the cue a unique tactilecharacter and helps the player maintain a consistent hand position during setupand stroke preparation.
The octagonal construction also reinforces theAmalia\'s classic Signature styling and distinguishes it immediately from moreconventional round-handle carom cues.
