Brigham: Heritage (48) (Rock Maple Inserts) Tobacco Pipe

A handsome, supple rendition of the Acorn and Pear shape, Brigham's "48" sees a plump, full-bodied bowl set to an upright shank and a demurely curved tapered stem. The aforementioned bowl boasts a subtle flare to its build, bringing to mind the look of the Pear shape, especially in profile. The shank and stem provide balance to the composition and encourage a comfortable smoking posture, all while keeping the entire form comfortable in hand.

Brigham's Heritage series presents a variety of the Canadian marque's signature shapes in a rich, auburn-hued smooth finish. It's a vibrant yet traditional dress that brilliantly accentuates Brigham's subdued, classical shaping style. The finish here highlights gorgeous grain throughout the stummel, its lush hues complemented by the jet-black coloration of the mouthpiece.

Like all of Brigham's lineup, this pipe also comes complete with the marque's signature Rock Maple Insert. This special insert comprises a rock maple dowel drilled with a 3.5mm airway and pressure-fitted in the tenon via a special metal cap, helping to remove moisture and unpleasant flavors that develop during the smoking process. No chemicals or adhesives are used to manufacture Brigham's Rock Maple Inserts, ensuring a flavor-neutral profile that doesn't interfere with the tobacco. Moreover, because of the drilling, the Rock Maple Insert is able to pass a pipe cleaner, even while the pipe is still assembled.

Note: While all of our other pipes are photographed individually, these are not, and you may expect some reasonable cosmetic variation between the example we've photographed and the pipe you've received.
