Ashton: Pebble Grain Bent Brandy with Silver (XXX) Tobacco Pipe

Bill Ashton-Taylor got his start making pipes for Dunhill, but after mastering the craft, realized he needed to set out on his own, so he founded the British marque Ashton. Sadly, Bill passed away in 2009, but pipe maker Jimmy Craig proudly carries on the Ashton name. This bent Brandy by Ashton possesses an exceptionally shapely bowl, as the low-set waistline is rendered quite supple, resulting in exquisitely balanced contours. Out back, the rounded shank emerges from a broad transition and ascends to a broad silver band — an elegant flourish. Additionally, the stummel is dressed in Ashton's handsome Pebble Grain sandblast, highlighting a wealth of rugged texture for one to appreciate.
