The Chacom Champs Elysses is a stunning traditionally designed pipes with a few discreet touches to make for a beautiful pipe without being flamboyant. The bowl is finished with a high gloss dark brown stain with just a subtle grain pattern showing through. And a light brown stain on the lip that compliments the briar band. The pipe is finished with a Black Acrylic stem with inlaid Briar bands to match the bowl before a nickel chacom logo is inlaid in the stem.
