Gresham Giant by Comoy’s 88 Smooth Stack Estate Briar Pipe, English Estates

Description

Comoy’s is a historic brand in pipe making, and possibly the most historic brand in the making of briar pipes. Though originally founded in 1825 by a French family from Saint Claude, France, production of Comoy’s pipes was soon moved to London, England, where it established itself as one of the quintessential English pipe companies. Gresham Giant was a sub-brand of Comoy’s.

As you might expect, Comoy’s Gresham Giant pipes tended to be on the large side. While this one is of a relatively standard length, it has a huge, stack bowl, with a chamber almost two inches deep. Despite this, the pipe remains lightweight, and may even be a comfortable clencher.

The condition is good. Some inner rim charring.
