James Upshall Billiard with Silver Estate Pipe

Finished smooth with a dense display of straight grain around the bowl resulting in tightly packed birdseye at both the broad rim and the heel underneath, this walnut finished James Upshall billiard from England boasts an immensely thick wall insulating a very wide chamber.  Well drilled with an open and smooth draw that can support such a large chamber, this English tapered smoker is adorned with an engraved silver band offering a touch of design beyond just a beautiful briar.  There are some handling marks about the bowl and some modest darkening around the rim, but this sophisticated smoker is in outstanding condition with a thin and comfortable bite.
