BriarWorks Classic C13 Dark Smooth Bent Billiard w/ Black Stem Briar Pipe, New

Description

BriarWorks represents the dream of many a pipe maker, being a workshop owned and stewarded by artisans whose mission is to produce affordable pipes of their own design. Founded in 2013 in Tennessee by American pipe making legends Todd Johnson and Pete Prevost, BriarWorks has gone from strength to strength in the years since, not least because of its ability to combine cutting-edge factory production techniques with high-grade artisan standards. Not unlike Pibe-Dan or Stanwell in Denmark, many a high-flying carver has been a part of the BriarWorks team, including contemporary greats such as Sam Adebayo, Micah Redmond, and Bill Shalosky.

Evoking iconic swan-neck, 3/4 bent billiard shapes from decades past, such as the Dunhill LC, the Sasieni Viscount Lascelles, and indeed the countless, early French briars of Saint-Claude, BriarWorks’ C13 is a faithful tribute to a true classic in pipe making. More than earning its place in BriarWorks’ shape roster of the same name, it is more or less perfect for those who admire both the look and feel of the old world and precision engineering and craftsmanship of the contemporary. This one is dressed in the workshop’s signature Dark Smooth contrast finish and is paired with a very fitting, black acrylic stem.
