Selected Straight Grain (Comoy’s) 126 Smooth Pot Estate Briar Pipe, English Estates

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 I’ve previously mentioned, the Selected Straight Grain could well be the most impressive ‘”seconds” line ever made. With one in your hand, you’d be hard pressed to think of such a term unless you already knew the make. This one is a rendition of Comoy’s classic 126 pot shape, with a wide chamber and a compact figure.

The condition is great. Some minor wear to the rim and slightly faded stamping.
