GBD Century 133 (Pre-Cadogan) Billiard Estate Pipe

Smooth and densely cross-grained, this GBD Century was likely made in the early 1970s before the merger with the Cadogan group and holds a well shaped billiard bowl in a straight and tapered profile.  The chamber is wide and tapers slightly to the bottom behind thick walls and met with a draft that provides a smooth and competent draw.  There are some handling marks and the stampings have been worn if still legible as well as some general slight darkening around the rounded rim and bevel into the chamber itself.  A true English billiard, this GBD is lightweight, thin at the bit, and will be a favorite clencher when smoked while using both hands elsewhere.
