| Ferndown
pipes by Les Wood embody the revival of English pipe making that was
initiated by Ashton in the early 1980s. Oil treated in the tradition
of both Dunhill and Ashton, Les Wood pipes are renowned for their pleasant,
slightly nutty flavor and remarkable smoking characteristics. About
90% of them are made in rusticated "Bark" finish and the balance are
a smooth "Reo" or "Root" finish. Les Wood was the master silver
smith at Alfred Dunhill Ltd. before starting L. & J.S. Briars so its
not surprising that all of the pipes have silver work. Until Dec. 2011 he still did all Dunhill's the silver work. All Ferndown pipes have hand cut stems from
best quality German Vulcanite. They don't seem to discolor. The Ferndown pipe represents the best of England's "5th generation" of quality pipe makers. Production is limited to around 700 pipes a year so we are extremely pleased to able to offer these classic British pipes. |
