Classic Apple

USA

A skillfully made apple from 1970-80s USA. We don’t know which motives or reasons prevented to leave a marking on the pipe, but the master has nothing to be ashamed of: everything is thought over exactly and elegantly. Most likely the pipe was prepared for one of the American tobakonists.

The pipe doesn’t have markings. The lenghts is 14.6 cm, bowl’s hight is 4.4 cm. External and internal diameters of this bowl are 2.9 cm and 2.1 cm. The depth is 3.7 cm and this pipe weights 37 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter.

USA This is another one lightweight, practical and not too much smoked american pipe. It’s difficult to say which pipe chain wanted to resemble Charatan and was selling the “Executive” pipes. But that doesn’t matter: the wood is good enough, the grain is nice and interesting, the engineering of the pipe is really of a…

USA We can’t confirm that this pipe was cut out of briar of 1920 (but who knows, might by the carver did really found old stocks of “Doctor Grabow” or “Medico”), but the material was selected undoubtedly intelligently and with the excellent taste.
