François Dal – Tradition 2022 – (on stem) δ

This is a Billiard Army in sandblasted finish and stained red ruby/burgundy. The surface sandblasting reveals an offset cross-grain structure. The end of the shank is strenghtened by an olive copper ring which combines nicely the stain of the stummel with the red-black of the cumberland stem. This one is hand cut from a cumberland bar from the renowned German company “New York Hamburger Gummi-Waaren” active since 1871 in the production of high quality ebonite. The generous chamber classifies it as Group 5 (21mm diameter by 45.7mm deep). The flock is cut in the mass and the shank is drilled to 4.2mm. The slot of the mouthpiece (concave cut) is open in a V-shape for optimum draw. The briar, from the Chrétin workshops in Saint-Claude (which closed in the 80s and 90s), has been drying for over 30 years!

Produced in the year 2022, it is therefore marked ‘Tradition 2022’.

	This pipe is new and has never been smoked.
	The stummel is in pristine condition, showing no apparent stroke or claw.
	The chamber is new and virgin, without coating.
	The cumberland stem is new and there is no tooth mark and no claws.
