4th Generation 1882 (by Peder Jeppesen) Smooth Brandy Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked

Description

4th Generation—or, rather, Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation, to use its full name—is a brand of pipes first conceived by Denmark’s Erik Stokkebye (as one would expect), who holds the accomplishment of representing four generations of the Stokkebye family’s involvement in pipes and tobaccos (as one would also expect). Erik Stokkebye himself does not make pipes; rather, he contracts this task to some of the world’s great pipe makers, most of which are also Danish, to create them. Those familiar with the history of Danish pipes may already be familiar with the pipes made by Jorgen Larsen for Peter Stokkebye (Erik’s father) around the 1970s. Several decades later, Erik would become the second generation in the Stokkebye family to o the same.

Around 2012, the first 4th Generation pipes made their debut, this time created by renowned Danish pipe maker Peder Jeppesen, also of Neerup fame. This pipe, the 1882 model, is one of those pipes, featuring a distinctly Danish, brandy bowl and Jeppesen’s signature use of ornate shank accents.

This pipe is completely unsmoked, with an original bowl coating. It comes with its original box and sleeve.
