About This Pipe
Founded in 1983 by William "Bill" Ashton-Taylor, who worked as a Dunhill apprentice, the Ashton workshop is lauded for its incredibly high standards of quality and mastery of classic English design principles. Jimmy Craig currently heads the company, having taken up the mantle after Bill's passing in 2009. Since then, he has sustained the Ashton legacy by steadfastly following the founder's philosophy of equally prioritizing all parts of the pipe, and utilizing only the best materials and most pristine finishing.
This bent Pot from Ashton features a characteristically broad, squat bowl framed by tubular walls that descend to a muscular heel. An angular transition introduces a round, low-set shank, which is joined by a stem with an elegant, Prince-like bend that promises a comfortable smoking posture. Dressed in the crisp sandblast and dark stain of the Pebble Grain series, the stummel showcases a wealth of lovely ring grain.
