BriarWorks: Classic Brown Sandblasted with Black Stem (C22F) (9mm) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 002-696-3084
Even when crafting timeless pipe shapes, BriarWorks' signature shaping style is evident, with slightly increased muscularity and robustness defining the shanks and transitions. Such a distinctive aesthetic makes shapes like this "C22" Billiard both classic and immediately recognizable as the work of the American workshop. The "C22" is BriarWorks' staple straight Billiard rendition, and it delights with robust shaping and a hearty chamber, all in a rather compact and portable package. This particular "C22F" example has also been drilled to accommodate a 9mm filter in the mortise.
As the name suggests, BriarWorks' Classic series comprises iconic, shape-chart standards and represents the workshop's standard-production lineup. While every BriarWorks stummel is carved on CNC (computer numerical control) machines based on pre-established templates for consistent shaping across renditions, the stem-fitting and finishing processes are entirely hand-applied by the American workshop's team of artisans: Pete Prevost, Bill Shalosky, Micah Redmond, and Sam Adebayo. All four men are artisan pipe makers in their own rights, and BriarWorks' production model of combining mass-production processes with hand-applied, artisanal techniques results in modestly priced pipes with the engineering and aesthetic quality of handmade work. This particular example wears the workshop's Brown sandblasted finish, offering rugged texture and a rustic persona.
