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″)

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.
