Vauen 3215 Smooth Bent Apple Estate Briar Pipe Unsmoked, 9mm

Out of stock

Description

Vauen stems from Germany’s oldest tobacco pipe manufacturing company, tracing its roots back to the founding partnership of Karl Ellenberger and Carl August Ziener in Nuremberg, 1848. Out of the Ellenberger-Ziener partnership soon came the Vauen make itself, which grew to become Germany’s largest and most enduring pipe brand – a title that it continues to hold to this day.

This Vauen is quite something – not only because it has some remarkable straight grain and flame grain patterns in its briar, but because it has a stem that is strongly reminiscent of Peterson’s P-lip. Fear not, it is not a replacement. Like a few pipe-makers over the last 100 years, such as Savinelli and Hilson, Vauen offered its own competitor to Peterson’s P-lip for a time. So, if you like P-lip style stems, but prefer more German pipe shapes, this Vauen could be perfect for you.

This Vauen is completely unsmoked, with a factory-original bowl coating to help ease in its first smokes. As with most Vauen pipes, it is chambered for 9mm filters, such as Vauen’s own or Savinelli’s balsa filters. It should also accommodate some variety of adapter for non-filter use, if the user prefers.
