France, 2000-2010s
This is a relatively recent and cleverly designed pipe from one of France’s most renowned brands. The bowl is made of acrylic with a briar insert, while the mouthpiece is traditionally crafted from ebonite. This combination is an innovative approach, opening up exciting possibilities for creating pipes from unexpected materials. Given the design and its overall excellent condition, this is likely a 21st-century ROPP pipe from Chapuis-Comoy.
