Nording Black Grain Smooth Freehand Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked

Nørding was founded by Erik Nørding in the 1960s, and is one of the oldest remaining companies to come out of the Scandinavian pipe-making renaissance that began in the mid-20th century. Now in his 80s, Erik Nørding is one of the most experienced and skilled pipe-makers in the world, and over the decades he has also been a teacher of other Danish masters, such as Poul Ilsted, Svend Axel Celius, Jens Tao Nielsen, Peder Jeppesen, and Søren Erik Andersen.

While Erik Nording’s freehands come in a vast variety of finishes, the Grain series is reserved for smooth pipes with excellent briar patterning. The Black Grain is one of several lines within the Grain series, featuring a relatively light and natural, smoky contrast finish.

This pipe is completely unsmoked, with an original bowl coating.
