BBB Savoy 667 Smooth Straight Pot Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked [SOLD OUT]

Description

‘BBB’ originally stood for ‘Blumfeld’s Best Briars’, so named after Louis Blumfeld after he took over the historic Alfred Frankenau Company in 1856. Later, the pipes came to be known as ‘Britain’s Best Briars’. Though the name might have changed, the quality of the pipes did not – they really were fantastic pipes, made in the classic style of the English-French shape chart. Like GBD, Dunhill, and Barling’s, BBB are pipes with a rich history behind them, proudly holding the title of “the oldest trade mark in the [pipe] industry.”

Sometimes you just can’t beat the classics. This BBB is about as classic as it gets; a traditional, straight billiard, dressed in a golden brown stain, with a comfortable vulcanite stem. The stain does a great job of emphasizing the swirling cross grain around the bowl. It’s simple and elegant, but quite a beautiful pipe too.

The pipe is completely unsmoked, with a factory original bowl coating to help ease in its first smokes. It also comes with its original box and sock.
