Lane Limited Smooth Bent Dublin w/ Acrylic Estate Briar Pipe, Italian Estates

Lane Limited was founded by German Jewish refugee Herman Lane in the 1930s, and soon rose to become a veritable empire in the tobacco industry. Drawing on a wealth of experience as the manager of a tobacco company in his native Dresden, Lane set up shop on Park Avenue in New York, out of which his new Lane Limited venture was based. Lane himself was a committed pipe smoker with era-defining taste, being the first importer of Charatan pipes to the United States and, later, one of the main distributors of Preben Holm’s pipes through the Ben Wade make. This particular pipe is, curiously enough, Italian-made, with an aesthetic not wholly unlike that of Caminetto or its offshoots. I’m not sure who made it but it is a very nice, and very distinctive, bent Dublin rendition. The condition is very good. Minor inner rim darkening and slight finish fading.   Details: Length: 6.1″ / 154.9mm Bowl Width: 0.86 / 21.84mm Bowl Depth: 1.47″ / 37.33mm Weight: 1.8oz / 52g
