White Elephant White Elephant started life as a small independent producer of Briar pipes back in 1945 in Bavaria. They began importing Meerschaum for their filters from Tanzania which is where they got their inspiration for the name. The company was sold to Kopp in 2019 and their products are still made in the same factory in Ettenstatt where a few artifacts of the old machines are still stored.
The Ebony and Ivory pipes are a short stem pipe perfect for chucking in a pocket when you are out and about. The quality of these is highly regarded, with luscious high gloss lacquers and tightly fitting fixtures. The Bowls have been given a light walnut stain before lacquering and are finished with a nickel band and white ivory look stems. German freehand artist Reiner Thilo has given his permission to resurrect his original design of the inlaid metal sphere on the stem which looks fantastic and really adds to the tactile feel of the pipes. The Number 1 is a classic full bent billiard with a tapered stem.
Presented in an original White Elephant box and pouch.
