England, 1950-70s
An exquisite and very rare Comoy’s De Luxe pipe made in the 1950-70s (“pre-Cadogan”)- absolutely classical billiard shape with the silver ferrule. Fantastic finding!
The pipe marking is “COMOY’S \ DE LUXE”, “MADE \ IN \ LONDON \ ENGLAND”, “182”. The length is 15.3 cm (6.02″), bowl’s height is 5.0 cm (1.97″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.9 cm (1.54″), internal diameter is 2.3 cm (0.9″). The depth is 4.4 cm (1.73″) and this pipe weights 45 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem (just a little bit patched in the button area – you may identify the trace under a very bright light), no filter.
