England, 2007
The pipe made by Ian Walker, world-known by his splendid brand “Northern Briars” for the British pipe smoking championship in 2007 (“BPSC 07” on the shank). And yes, this pipe is still unsmoked: organizators of the event foreseeingly ordered some number of additional spare pipes for trade. So you have a brilliant chance to posses a small part of the British pipe smoking tradition!
