Clément Pipe from Saint-Claude – Tobacco pipe

Description

A vintage pipe in horn & briar

This Clément pipe is a handcrafted creation from the 1990’s, made in Saint-Claude. This classic straight pipe has a rounded, thick and generous bowl, pleasant to take in hand. Without imperfection or pit, it is simply waxed to highlight the grain pattern of the briar. It is adorned with an elegant copper band that provides a smooth transition between the briar and a beautiful genuine horn stem. This Estate (unsmoked) pipe in mind conditions has a removable metal filter and an aluminum tenon for a solid mounting.

This is a one off pipe. The traditional briar in the pictures is the exact one you will receive.

A handmade French creation, made in Saint-Claude

The Clément pipes were made by Mr Paul Clément, a handcrafter from Saint-Claude. Trained after the 2nd World War in the Jeantet-David manufacture, he then opened a souvenir store in the Pomme d’or district in Saint-Claude before devoting himself exclusively to the creation of briar pipes. During the summer season, he left his workshop in Saint-Claude for an Artisans’ village in the Arcachon Basin (Bay of Arcachon) where he presented his creations and made, among other things, briar pipes sculpted in the effigy of their husband for his female clients.
