Selected Straight Grain 126, Smooth Straight Pot Estate Briar Pipe (Comoy’s) [SOLD OUT]

Description

Selected Straight Grain was a ‘seconds’ make from Comoy’s, the historic English-French pipe manufacturer. Selected Straight Grains were made from stummels that were destined to be Comoy’s rare, high-grade Specimen Straight Grain pipes, but which were ultimately discovered to have a small imperfection.

As you might have guessed, Selected Straight Grains could well be the most impressive ‘seconds’ ever made. Looking at this one, you’d be hard pressed to think of such a term unless you already knew the make. It’s a beautiful, traditional straight pot, with a bowl surrounded by fine straight and flame grain patterns. It’s also very light, at just 37 grams, meaning it should clench quite easily, and look great while doing so.

The condition is great too. There are some handling marks and a touch of unevenness to the outer rim, but otherwise it just looks like a really nice, classic and well-kept pipe.
