Ropp: Vinatge Smooth (420) Tobacco Pipe

Product Number: 002-598-17680

Within Ropp's portfolio, the "420" is one of the French marque's quintessential straight Bulldog offerings. It personifies the classic design's characteristic diamond shank, beadlined bowl, and tapered rim, making the "420" an archetypal rendition of the Anglo-French shape chart standard. Even among traditional iterations of the form, the bowl dimensions can differ, and in this piece, Ropp has opted for a squat version to accentuate the design's muscular appeal — yet all in a considerably compact, diminutive size overall. The "420" is perfect for those looking for a pipe of Nosewarmer length, while Ropp's Vintage Stout line presents other compact Bulldogs but of even more substantial dispositions.

Sourced from old stummels found at the Chapuis-Comoy factory, Ropp's Vintage line presents old-school, classic designs that were turned decades ago but never finished. This piece is dressed in a chestnut stain and fitted with a stem of genuine horn, hearkening back to the style of mouthpieces from the early 1900s. It accentuates the vintage motif, making for a thoroughly retro aesthetic.
