France, 1950-60 A genius detective, Mr Sherlock Holmes is traditionally associated with Peterson pipes, no matter that there’s no clear proof of that. It’s already a standard human perception. In such a case his famous colleague from another side of the Channel, Jules Magrait should be associated with Ropp pipes the most probably. And that’s…
England, unsmoked We can pretty sure claim the pipe as an unknown before and not registered in catalogues John Redman factory product. Audacious combination of the classical stummel and fancy stem, specific stamping (LONDON MADE under a brand name and MADE IN ENGLAND on the opposite side of the shank) plus the specific model of…
Italy The pipe is not for sale. It would be absolutely impossible to sell such a beauty! Moreover, it’s a birthday present obtained a few years ago and safely stored in unsmoked condition until this year. The pipe surpassed all expectation: it’s a wonderful smoker in general and the best device for the Irish Spring…

France The absolute majority of our pipes are made of briar. Nevertheless we’re glad to make an exclusion for this French Ropp cherry wood pipe. In the XX century Ropp was for French smokers the same as Dunhill for English people or Peterson for Irishmen – a synonym to the “smoking pipe” concept . Though…
England, 1950-60s A stylish Parker pipe made in late 1950s or early 1960s, before merge with Hardcastle Pipe Ltd. It was the period, when Parker succesfully combined Dunhill’s resources and production facility and its own, at times very different from Dunhill’s approach to carving, shaping, finishing and marketing. Therefore both experienced pipe collectors and refined…
Denmark, 1960-70s Very elegant and lightweight dublin pipe from one of the most bright and mysterious Danish carvers, Peter Brakner.
England, 1950-70s A pleasant representative of the very popular Comoy’s second line from the 1950-70s. Traditional English middle size billiard becomes an eye-catching, unusual and even a bit “freehandish” look with the newly made fancy acrylic stem.
