Nording Orange Grain 2 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. In the case of the Orange grain series, these pipes are hand-carved in the classic, “Danish Fancy” freehand style, before being finished in a deep, orange-red contrast finish.

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