Description

According to Who Made That Pipe? by Wilczok & Colwell, Vendome was a make produced by Chapuis-Comoy after the Second World War. Chapuis-Comoy, for those uninitiated, is a French company that was born from perhaps the greatest pipe making dynasty in the nation’s history, being associated with the Comoy’s, Chacom, and  La Bruyère makes (to name a few), over the last two centuries. This pot sitter appears to have come from yet another of these makes, Vendome, and is both highly ergonomic and very distinctive in its finish. I’m not sure I’ve seen rustication quite like this before.

The condition is very good. Minor rim darkening and finish fading, but nothing major.
