Rattrays Pipe Of The Year 2020 Green 9mm Filter 117/300 Fishtail Pipe (RA736)

Rattray's pipes are made from the highest quality briars and are available in many beautiful classic shapes. They are crafted with all the care and know-how of the world's oldest pipe companies.

2020 is the Chinese year of the rat. In China this rodent is highly respected. It is a very social animal but also assertive, active, fast and agile. The rat is the first animal in the Chinese sign of the zodiac and thus is a symbol for new beginnings.

This series is the third pipe of the year decorated with a Chinese sign of the zodiac. The design was made by Rattray's former student assistant Hyun Ho Je, who by now has a diploma in industrial design. She interpreted the animals in a celtic fashion.

Now let us talk about the thick walled Rhodesian beauty. It features a beautiful spigot style application and the smooth surfaces are finished in matted colours to emphasise the high quality of the woods.

The 2020 Pipe of the Year is available in 6 styles, each one limited to only 50 pieces. Each pipe is numbered.

Number 117/300.

Supplied in a Rattray's pouch and box.
