COMOY’S Facet 12

August 7, 2025August 7, 2025

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 Facet — featuring a striking four-sided bowl, vivid grain pattern, and a stylish modern acrylic mouthpiece. A pleasing piece of work.

Pipe markings “COMOY'(S) \ FACET”, “MADE \ IN \ LODON \ ENGLAND”, “12”
Length 14.1 cm (5.55″)
Bowl Height 5.6 cm (2.2″)

Chamber Diameter 2.0 cm (0.79″)

Weight 49 gr.

Briar, acrylic stem, no filter.

The pipe is not for sale. It was restored to order and has already started a new life in a new cozy home.
