Old German Clay Pipe #RSL
This clay pipe comes with an angled shank and curved ebonite stem. Made using original molds that were discovered in 2017, these pipes are true collectors items. The original 1930s metal wind cover comes attached to the bowl. The stem has a cork fitting to ensure it rests nice and snug in the shank of the clay bowl. One extra cork is included.
Markus Fohr is a pipe maker who lives in Montabaur, Germany, about 70 Miles from Frankfurt, Cologne and Düsseldorf in the region of Westerwald.
His family has been making clay pipes for generations. He uses the fine white clay of the region which has been prized for centuries and is used to create the famous pottery of this region.
Some of the molds used are originals going back 240 years.
