Chacom Reybert 1275 Smooth Nosewarmer Lovat Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked

Description

Chacom is one of France’s most historic and iconic makes. Its founders, the Comoy family, began their career as boxwood pipe-makers in the early 1800s, before briar had even been discovered, with Henri Comoy (of Comoy’s fame) emigrating to England in 1879 and founding the country’s first briar pipe factory. In 1922, Henri and his nephews, the Chapuis, founded the Chapuis Comoy pipe factory in Saint-Claude, France, which shortly after began producing pipes bearing the partnered families’ names – ‘Cha’ for Chapuis, and ‘Com’ for Comoy. Chacom has been the biggest name in French pipes ever since.

Chacom’s Reybert line is one devoted exclusively to “nosewarmer” pipes—i.e., pipes that are short, lightweight, easily transportable, and very comfortably clenched. This one features a reserved, dark blue-brown stain that nonetheless lets a nice amount of flame grain through.

This pipe is completely unsmoked, with an original bowl coating.
