<div style="text-align: center;">
When we started making our own pipes last year John and I decided to leave some of the pipes in a natural finish, without stain. This way our clients could appreciate the true beauty of the natural grain of the briar. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Two days ago a client of ours who bought one of our pipes about six months ago returned to buy more. He said that he was so pleased with his pipe that he wanted to buy one similar for a friend of his who had admired his. On taking his pipe out to light up ( in the Pipery with a big notice on the wall saying 'No Smoking', number one in a series of notices to be ignored) I was amazed to see that over time the briar had taken on a beautiful deep chestnut hue. I had noticed this before with old quality pipes like Dunhill's before the war that their pipes take on a glow, rather than a glossy shine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are the two pipes. His is on the left and the new one for his friend is on the right. Over time that too will acquire the same deep chestnut glow of the other.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lesson here is Quality Counts - start with the finest materials and they just get better.</div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
This is one of the biggest
meerschaums I have ever seen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Measuring
a massive 22cms from heel of bowl to tip of mouthpiece and standing 10cms tall
this is just waiting to become the star of your collection.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is made of a huge block of meerschaum with
a brass chimney and cover and brass stem mounts.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The mouthpiece is made of copper, mother of
pearl and horn.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It is carved with a scene of the
little Dutch boy who put his finger in the hole in the Dyke and is dated
1721.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However that is not the correct
date.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This was made in Austria in the
late Victorian period and was for the many visitors who were beginning to sweep
the city looking for meerschaum pipes.</div>

I am mounting genuine pipes on wooden
plaques for wall hanging.<br />
My first two are Peterson pipes. I attach a picture. <br />
They are real Peterson pipes, one of the straight ones is a Sterling
Silver. I'm looking for £25 each plus £5 p&p, however for fellow Brothers I would let
you have them for £50 post free.<br />
<br />
Let me know if you're interested.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Unfortunately the postage to send them abroad would be prohibative.</div>
