BARLING Londoner 494

December 26, 2015January 21, 2019

England, 1960-70s

The Londoner pipes were made in 1960-70s both in England and in Danmark (including Erik Nordning pipe factory). There’s no COM stamping on the pipe therefore we can’t say more definitely. But it’s really a great and amazing example of Barling production from that time! The section of the bowl is not an ideal square, but it could be done for more comfortable sitting in a hand.

The pipe markings are “LONDONER”, “494”. The length is 14.0 cm, bowl’s hight is 4.2 cm. External and internal dimesions of the bowl are 3.0 cm and 1.9 cm. The depth is 3.5 cm and this pipe weights 37 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter. The chamber has been protected with a break in coat.

England, 1930s The pipe obtained with a collection of very interesting pre WWII English and American pipes. We’d like to draw your attention to the absense of any size stamps on the pipe, these size stamps were really rare before the WWII and became frequently used and expanded only in the 1940s. Fantastic pipe in…

CHARATAN’S MAKE Special 4 twin bore
October 1, 2017December 28, 2018
England, 1960s An extremely rare and very interesting Charatan’s Make pipe of their best period (“Lane era”), i.e. late 1960s – early 1970s, when the glory of Charatan’s eclipsed all competitors, including Dunhill. At these times the twin bore stems were quite popular as their buttons were better resistant to teeth pressure. But anyway, most…

England, 1950s A shining lightweight and surprising indeed Barling’s pipe! It comes from a large family era Barling’s collection produced for the Middlesbro Winter Garden, we have already represented a very similar Barling’s Make Guinea Grain from this batch. But this pipe has only a script “Barling” logo stamped twice (see pictures). There’s also no…

England An early transition Barling, born approximately between 1962 and 1968. Old good briar stocks were still available at that time and quality of pipes was as high as during the best Barling’s period.

Englad, 1970s A nice and practical Barling pipe from the corporate period, most likely dating to the 1970s. While it may not hold the same collector’s value as the “family” Barlings, this pipe certainly deserves attention: quality briar, precise craftsmanship, and an elegant silver collar bearing the famous marking—sure to catch anyone’s eye. Pipe markings…

England, 1930-40s A moderately smoked and well preserved Hardcastle’s family era pipe made before 1946 and very probably – before WWII (during the War the company was unable to obtain briar for production as many others English manufacturers).
