COMOY’S David’s 1459

May 9, 2014February 5, 2019

England

When we looked for Comoy’s pipe recently in Internet we have discovered that many modern Comoys are produced in Denmark. That’s difficult to say something about their quality (same story is with a number of brands that has been moved there like Barling or Ben Wade) however their prices are suspiciously budgeted . Yet we still keep insisting that right Comoy’s pipes should be made in England.

Our today’s pipe is really an English one. Its shape number and overall conditions prove that it was made not earlier than in 1980s. So the pipe is relatively young and impresses with its expressive grain and golden-brown colour. Moreover the pipe was smoked perhaps once or twice: there’s still no carbonization in the bowl

The pipe markings are “СOMOY’S \ DAVID’S”, “1459”, “MADE \
IN \ LONDON \ ENGLAND” and “9R””. The length is 13.2 cm, bowl’s hight is 4.7 cm. External and internal diameters of the bowl are 3.0 cm and 1.9 cm. The depth is 3.0 cm and this pipe weights 31 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter.

England, 1930s A rescued Comoy’s pipe from the late 1930s. The extremely popular Grand Slam series was started in the 1930s (according to the one of legends – in 1933, and it was named so in honor of success of a British tennis player) and was produced up to the 1970s. The patent system with…

The Guildhall London Pipe 164
June 20, 2013February 24, 2019
England, 1950-70s There was a legend about a white spot, which was made out of a whole elephant. That is why all pipes with the white spot are so expensive. Perhaps these three aluminium stripes on Guildhall pipes were made from German bombers which were shot-down over London. And as far as there were no…

COMOY’S Desk Pipe 160S
August 10, 2016January 7, 2019
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….

England, 1980-90s The 1981 merger of Comoy’s and GBD into a single company under the management of the Oppenheimer Group (Cadogan) is viewed with mixed opinions. However, it’s hard to deny that the move spurred the introduction of new technologies and the creation of fresh, interesting series and shapes. One successful example is today’s Comoy’s…

April 29, 2018December 21, 2018
England, 1950-70s A pleasant representative of the very popular Comoy’s second line from the 1950-70s. Traditional English middle size billiard becomes an eye-catching, unusual and even a bit “freehandish” look with the newly made fancy acrylic stem.
