French Estates: Butz-Choquin Cocarde Smooth Bent Billiard Tobacco Pipe

This bent Billiard from Butz-Choquin features an Oom Paul-like transition, which here bridges a tall, hearty bowl to a vertically inclined shank-and-stem arrangement. While the overall composition measures less than five inches in total length, the bowl houses a considerable chamber capacity within its thick insulating walls. It's handsomely dressed in the Cocarde smooth finish, which accentuates the natural grain orientation of the briar quite well.
