COMOY’S Carlyle 296

October 21, 2022October 21, 2022

England, 1930s

Both stampings and the shape number (296 for a canadian) testify that it’s a Comoy’s creature. Moreover such the stamping in a circle with “MADE” at the top, “IN” in the middle, and “ENGLAND” forming the bottom of the circle proves that the pipe was undoubtedly made not later than in the 1930s . So, there we have a wonderful 90 year old English briar pipe made by Comoy’s craftsmen before WWII.

Pipe markings “The \ CARLYLE \ PIPE”, “MADE \ IN \ ENGLAND”, “296”

Length 14.9 cm (5.87′)

Bowl Height 4.6 cm (1.81″)

Outside Diameter 3.4 cm (1.34″)

Chamber Diameter 2.1 cm (0.83″)

Chamber Depth 4.0 cm (1.57″)

Weight 33 gr.

Briar, vulcanite stem, aluminium air cooler.

The pipe seems to be intensively smoked and cleaned during its previous life – the chamber looks a little bit out of round. The pipe has been thoroughly cleaned, polished, sanitized and now is ready for a new life.

COMOY’S Highgate
December 8, 2023December 8, 2023
England Herb Wilczak and Tom Colwell mentioned two manufacturers of Highgate pipes: L. Orlik Ltd and Comoy’s. However, if you look at the stampings, there is no doubt: this Serif font on Comoy pipes cannot be confused with any other. The pipe looks like Comoy’s answer to some of the innovative American and English brands…

England, 1950-70s This is the sister of our represented below Guildhall’s apple. The same time, the same manufacturer, the same excellent quality of a briar, the same three shining aluminium stripes. We had a bit more efforts for the mouthpiece restoration and the repair point is slightly remarcable. Therefore our generall score will be, say,…

England, 1980-90s Almost every pipe needs a stand, so why not to combine the stand and the pipe itself? Looks very useful for a man whose desk is covered with reports, diagrams, financial magazines and whatever else we can imagine 🙂 A beautiful and fresh implementation of this idea from the 1980-90’s made by Comoy’s….
