Eltang Basic smooth hazelnut-coloured pipe, a unique classic straight poker model with a carbon fibre stem and a methacrylate mouthpiece. A standout piece. It is original and embodies Tom Eltang’s basic pipe concept. Its originality makes it fresh and very elegant, and it is extremely practical to smoke. It is of medium size and features a discreet bowl that guarantees excellent smokeability in any situation. Its remarkable lightness makes it ideal for smoking both whilst out and about and whilst comfortably seated in an armchair. Despite having a carbon fibre stem, the pipe never produces a damp smoke. At the end of the smoke, the bowl remains dry, which also allows for two consecutive smokes. Personally, I consider it a delightful pipe which, even with a modest bowl, allows for a leisurely smoke of 30–45 minutes. Its lightness between the teeth makes it hard to put down. The pipe features extraordinary English-style ‘Angel’s Wings’ flamed grain, with horizontal flamed lines on the sides and a dense partridge-eye pattern on the front. The Basic is available in various finishes: rusticated, sandblasted and smooth. The latter two feature distinct grain patterns, which are sometimes very beautiful and dense. The rusticated finish has a ‘cylinder’ finish that makes it feel cooler, although the others never get too hot to hold. The quality of the briar is guaranteed by Tom Eltang.
The pipe for sale is exactly the one shown in the photos. Once sold, as it is handmade and therefore unique, the pipe will be removed from the website. The actual colour of the pipe may vary slightly from the photo as every monitor has its own colour tone. The dimensions have been measured accurately but may vary by a millimetre, either way.
