Tim West Chubby Oom Paul Briar Pipe, American Estates [SOLD OUT]

Out of stock

Description

Tim West is one of the United States’ oldest and most experienced living artisan pipe-makers, having made his first pipe all the way back in 1967, and having become a full-time pipe maker since 1975. A legend in the scene, West has produced thousands of pipes in his lifetime, and has won his far share of awards for them too.

I think of this particular West as like a boutique Oom Paul, otherwise called a ‘Hungarian.’ Defined by its sharp, full bend and tall bowl, the Oom Paul is a fairly classic shape, though one that is often neglected due to the difficulty of drilling its draught hole correctly. Have no fear though – West has pulled this off masterfully, as should be expected. It’s a large pipe with a large bowl, so it’s perfect for a long evening smoke with your favorite blend. It also features plenty of bird’s-eye grain around the bowl, so you’ll also have something nice to look at in between draws.
