Just fair warning: remember, the fresh cut briar will more than likely be a much different color than the previously cut stuff, but great find!

I love the stand and the pipes are very cool. I have an English brier that my dad brought back from the service that was used by my grandfather. I've never lighted it, since it reminds me of the one grandfather I never met.

I also have the clay pipes from the late 1800s from Ireland that the family brought over.

Now that is awesome. I wish I had some of the old Supple family pipes. I don't even know if they exist anymore.
