England, 1960-70s A very nice finding – unsmoked Charatan’s Special pipe from the 1960-70s. Moreover it’s the 489 shape which is on our opinion one the most successful and recognizable. We have already represented this Charatan’s model in smoked condition as well as the Bewlay pipe of the same shape made by Charatan’s.
England, 1960s A heavy, capacious and very moderately smoked Charatan’s Make pipe of their best period (“Lane era”), i.e. 1960s – early 1970s, when the glory of Charatan’s eclipsed all competitors, including Dunhill. Generally the stamping “DC” should reffer to a patented double comfort stem. But this tapered stem fits the spirit and style of…
England, 1960s The 483 shape was perhaps one of the most recognized and appreciated creatures of the Lane era Charatan’s carvers (1960-1970). Some call it a calabash, some else – a bell (the overturned bowl looks really like a bell). A great example and justification that Charatan’s pipe of these times were much better sold…
England, 1960s An extremely rare and very interesting Charatan’s Make pipe of their best period (“Lane era”), i.e. late 1960s – early 1970s, when the glory of Charatan’s eclipsed all competitors, including Dunhill. At these times the twin bore stems were quite popular as their buttons were better resistant to teeth pressure. But anyway, most…

England, 1950s A nice classical English lovat pipe made during the family, “pre-Lane” era. You may see that the shape number is located on the left side of the shank (from the smoker’s perspective) together with other stampings, what is typical for the Ruben era. So the pipe was made in 1950s, hardly much earlier:…
