Chacom Pipes (St Claude) Chacom is a family owned company who can trace their pipe making heritage to 1825 before Briar was even discovered. They are based in St Claude which is widely recognised as the pipe making capital of the world. They are one of very few pipe manufacturers who make pipes from start to finish. From ageing the Briar right through to hand finishing.

Chacom Select Freehand Pipes Chacom are not widely known for their freehand pipes but quite predictably for a company of it’s heritage and experience it is something they excel at. Every now and then the pipe graders come across an exceptional block of Briar and feel that it should be made into something much more special than the general shape range that makes up 95% of their production. So on special days the carvers are given free reign to let their creative juices loose!

The select 08 is not really a freehand more than just a very high grade of pipe. The pipe is stamped "selected straight grain" which is very rare to see on a Chacom pipe and emphasises the fact that this is a very high grade piece. The rain is almost totally flawless as the straight grain ecompasses the entire bowl without any visible flaws which Chacom has done much justice with by finishing in a very light matte stain. Simply stunning!
