S.T. DuPont 305 Sandblasted Canadian with 14k Gold (Estate)

Founded in Paris in 1872, S.T. Dupont is a historic luxury goods manufacturer, one that—as with a few notable purveyors of luxuries in the 19th and 20th centuries—would come to occupy a prominent position in the world of tobacco pipes. From pouches and cases, to lighters, to pipes themselves, S.T. Dupont offered high-end items for the most discerning of pipe smokers. These days, the company is most famous for its lighters (along with a host of goods in other domains), though there was a time when one could purchase luxury briars bearing the S.T. Dupont name.

This particular pipe is one of them. Crafted in France, it’s an elegant, eminently traditional Canadian in the Anglo-French vein, with a rich sandblast finish and a 14 karat solid gold collar that ties everything together.

The condition is good. Minor rim darkening, some finish fading, some tooth chatter, and chamber slightly over-reamed.
