JOHN REDMAN Golden Square dublin

England

The pipe named after a very nice London place – the Golden Square located between the Upper John and Lower John streets in the city center. The most of the Redman pipes bear such topological signs and of course the popular middle range series was highly appreciated by consumers both due to smoking qualities and due to English people’s unsurpassed patriotism and pride in their homeland.

Another interesting detail. This is already not the first Redman’s pipe marked “expressly for Pogues” which arrived to us from USA. It seems a batch of pipes was produced especially for an American tobacconist and of course they were specially stamped for the reseller. What a nice example of the international cooperation!

The pipe markings are “GOLDEN SQUARE \ LONDON MADE”, “MADE IN ENGL…”, “EXPRESSLY FOR POGUES”. The length is 14.8 cm (5.83″), bowl’s height is 4.5 cm (1.77″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.2 cm (1.26″), internal diameter is 1.9 cm (0.75″). The depth is 3.7 cm (1.46″) and this pipe weights 27 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem (a little bit corrected, you may see the track under a bright light), no filter. The shank had a small neat crack which was carefully fixed and clamped by a collar for maximal reliability.

England One of the popular, unambitious and affordable pipes made on the John Redman factory in London in 1950-60’s. Draw attention to the large and convincing metallic air cooler of a spoon shape – it’s very typical for many Redman’s products from that time.

England There’s a long-desired addition to our private collection: John Redman Special Best Briar 509 (the laddle shape, our favourite one!). A really great work of Redman’s carvers: perfect briar, amazing distinct grain, ideal shaping and drilling. The series was one of the top grades, only Redman’s Royal pipes are more valuable!

England A bright and stylish example of the middle segment pipes produced by John Redman factory, London . A very unusual combination of rusticated and smooth finishes, very remarkable and typical for this manufacturer. This is the really uncommon billiard with the large chamber and a light hint on a freehand 🙂

England We have a suspicion that the pipe was born in 1979 when a carver saw the “Alien” movie for the first time. Of course, it’s a joke, but the pipe’s shape is extraterrestrial indeed. By the way, we have met a Sasieni one of the same shape recently.
