Gentlemen,
I replied earlier in this thread that I had aquired an Edwardian pipe cabinet from fleabay and that would post some pictures when I got back from my latest trip away to work, well here it is, with three clay pipes, two are tavern pipes and unsmoked at this stage, the other is a Victorian era clay in a lovely leather case. It was badly blocked but some acetone and a bit of fine fencing wire fixed that. After a washout with water and time to dry , tried it out, smokes really well, does not take a large amount of tobbaccy which isn't a bad thing.

Cheers all

I have never seen a clay like that... It is awesome... I'll have search for one... It seems that it would be comfortable to smoke with a a modern day bit/stem...

FYI, another way to clean a clay is to place the bowl in a fire, all the "goo" with loosen up and clean out easier...

Our thoughts are with the people of Norway

First what exactly is a tavern pipe. I know its a long stem pipe but why is it so and are there any other differences. Secound what's going on in Norway?

I've had my eye on a lorenzetti Pipe.

Maybe the Nero or one of the Caesars. Would you guys say they are worth it?

@Basil:
Haven't tried a Lorenzetti myself yet but haven't heard anything bad about them....

Last night it was Montford Point Marine in a refurbished Butz Choquin

And again in an EJH

This morning it's back to Chelsea Morning in a Tony Rodriguez

Thanks for the reply. Makes me feel a bit better.
