In our continuing search for excellent pipes for our customers, we came across a factory-made line of pipes that simply cannot be beat. The brand is Wessex. This line of pipes comes in twelve standard shapes and features uncoated, natural bowls, brown sandblasted finish, and get this... hand-cut Cumberland stems! The price on these Wessex pipes is...(are you ready?) $69.00 each! They smoke cool, neutral and dry, and the stem is very comfortable in the teeth. A great pipe for a GREAT price, and for $69 bucks a pop, how can you lose? This shape is a sandblasted bent billiard/egg. Please note that this is an example of the shape; the grain may vary slightly.
Markings read: WESSEX, HAND MADE FRANCE. Cumberland stem is marked: HAND CUT, and features a black dot in silver ring logo. Measurements: 5 1/2" long, bowl is 1 1/2" wide and 1 7/8" tall. This one is about a Dunhill group 4 in capacity.
Condition:
10 out of 10. Unsmoked and perfect. There may be occasional lathe marks in some of the bowls, but they're great unsmoked pipes for not alot of dough.
