Vauen: Maximus (192) (9mm) Tobacco Pipe

Latin for "largest" or "greatest," Maximus is a Vauen series that boasts a stylish finish, a trim metal shank accent, and a rim adorned in metal, emblazoned with "VN" across its surface in reference to Vauen's original, acronymous name: Vereinigten Pfeifenfabriken Nürnber. While eye catching by itself, the metal rim will also protect against any darkening or charring and is a flashy way to contrast the stummel's reserved stain. While it's not the largest series of pipes from Vauen, it's certainly a great name for such a stylish line, and it's presented here across the "92" Zulu shape.
