Thorburn Clark Special XL Rusticated Lumberman Estate Briar Pipe, English Estates

Description

Thorburn Clark was an English tobacconist that existed for the most part of the 20th century. While many tobacconists have, throughout history, imported pipes from established factories to serve as house-brand pipes, Thorburn Clark instead had a team of pipe makers working at its Manchester premises, who made Thorburn Clark pipes. This extra large, ruggedly rustic lumberman is one such pipe. It’s a stout and sturdy piece, with an exceptionally large chamber even for a pipe of such proportions. I recommend packing a full bowl, switching your phone to airplane mode, and enjoying a long, wonderfully unproductive evening with this one.

The condition is fair. Some finish fading and some darkening and scratches on the rim.
