England

There isn’t too much we can tell about this pipe. It also comes from the 1950th collection. The marking is “Cornishman London Made”. The more we are getting familiar with english pipes the more we feel that in the middle of XX century there was a special pipe brand in every town (like there was a special kind of “samogon” – home made vodka – in every Ukrainian village at the same time :-))

This nice english buldog pipe is 14.8 cm long, 4.5 cm tall and weights 36 gr. The bowl’s external diameter is 2.9 cm, inner – 1.9 cm, inner depth – 3.5 cm. Vulcanite stem, air cooler.
