Ray (3432) (9mm) Tobacco Pipe

Founded in 1848 by Karl Ellenberger and Carl August Zeiner, Vauen is Germany's oldest pipe factory and the birthplace of the 9mm pipe filter — an innovation that has since become standard across most of the marque's designs. The Ray series is characterized by a deep, inky smooth finish complemented by a shimmering blue acrylic mouthpiece. Offered in a variety of Vauen's classic shapes, the series' polished presentation and eye-catching stem work are on full display in this "32" example.

Note: While most 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.
