Stamped: (Corresponding Number) / 08 / Caliper logo / RUTHENBERG / U.S.A / HANDMADE From Brain's ”Briar Art” web site: ”I will probably produce about 100-150 pipes a year. All high grade pipes. I use only the best plateau briar from Italy and Morocco .I also use the very best Ebonite and Cumberland rod stock that can be had, to hand cut all my stems. My pipes are drilled to 4mm in the draft hole in the shank, and are tapered in the stem to the button. Some draft holes are drilled larger, when the bowl is larger then 3/4” diameter. This makes for a very dry and cool smoke.” Display stand not included.
