Viking Classic Bent Apple Sitter Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked [SOLD OUT]

Description

Viking was a make originally created by Bjarne Nielsen as a sub-brand of his main-line Bjarne pipes. Nielsen himself was one of the towering figures of Danish pipe-making until his passing in 2008, introducing the world to a generation of talented pipe-makers from his home country. While neither Nielsen nor Bjarne are around anymore, the Viking line continues to be produced, offering interesting designs at affordable prices.

From what I’ve seen, the Viking Classic line is one of traditionally shaped pipes, as the name suggests, rather than overtly Danish ones. In any case, the results also always seem to be very nice, affordable pipes, with a few extra touches to distinguish them from standard factory makes. The faux spigot on this one gives it an extra elegance, while the light, blonde stain does well to highlight the fiery cross grain around the stummel.

This pipe is completely unsmoked.
