BARLING Londoner 519S

December 8, 2023December 8, 2023

England, 1960s

The Londoner line was introduced after the acquisition of the Barling family business by Imperial Tobacco. However, after some time, the production of most pipes, including the Londoner series, was moved to other countries such as Italy, Denmark, and France. Therefore, our pipe is quite rare because it has been made still in England. A truly capacious pot-shaped Barling pipe from the corporate era!

Length 14.7 cm (5.79″)
Bowl Height 4.4 cm (1.73″)

England, 1960s This large sandblasted apple is already a corporate era Barling pipe, the most experienced experts assign the King series with such nomenclature to 1962-1970. Although these “corporate” Barlings don’t cost hundreds of dollars the pipes were carved very skillfully and with all possible respects to 150-year Barling family pipe making tradition.

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…

England, 1950-60s This pipe is not a product of the Barling family period, but it clearly retains many of the characteristic traits of that era: the shape, the mouthpiece profile, and the distinctive Barling-style button.
