Design Berlin Strassbourg Smooth Bent Brandy Estate Briar Pipe Unsmoked, 9mm

Out of stock

Description

Design Berlin is, as the name suggests, a German pipe-making company – and is in fact the number two best-selling German pipe make after Vauen. Founded in 1948 as Pfeifenstudio Hartmann by Hubert Hartmann, the company adopted the name Design Berlin and the lowercase ‘db’ logo in 1975 as part of a modernization push.

This particular Design Berlin comes from the Strassbourg series, a limited edition series from several years back. As can be seen here, the series combined a light brown, almost strawberry blonde, finish with a smoky acrylic accent and a black acrylic stem. This one is a very Danish brandy shape, with some genuinely extraordinary straight grain lining its bowl and shank. As a Design Berlin pipe, the stem features a twin bore system, sort of like Radice does on some of their pipes.

This limited edition Design Berlin is completely unsmoked, with a factory-original bowl coating to help ease the break-in process. It is chambered for 9mm filters as standard, but should accommodate an adapter of some variety.
