English Estates: Sasieni Two Dot Smooth Billiard (55SG) (Aftermarket Band) Tobacco Pipe

Founded in 1919, the Sasieni brand was built on hard work and determination. Beginning his career as an apprentice at Charatan, Sasieni's founder, Joel Sasieni, also rose in the ranks at Dunhill before venturing off to create his own pipes. Even when his factory burned down, Joel was quick to rebuild and continue his production of high-quality pipes. More than 30 years after Joel's death, his son Alfred continued to run the company with the same philosophies and passions as his father. The brand remained in the family until the late 1970's when it was eventually sold to another firm.

This Two Dot Billiard from Sasieni is a hefty rendition of the classic shape, while still remaining balanced. A flat underside also enables this pipe to sit confidently, ideal for the smoker looking to work and smoke at the same time. From the heel, the towering cylindrical walls of the bowl rise to a flat rim that looks into a spacious chamber, ready to be filled with your favorite tobacco and smoked at length. Out back, a sturdy stank extends before meeting a metallic accent band at the junction, connecting the briar to the saddle stem made of black vulcanite.
