Pipes

A smoking pipe is a device made to allow the user to inhale or taste smoke or vapor derived from the burning or vaporization of some substance. The most common form of these is the tobacco pipe, which is designed for use with tobacco, although the device itself may be used with many other substances. The pipes are manufactured with a variety of materials, the most common (as the popularity of its use): Heather, corn, meerschaum, clay, cherry, glass, porcelain, ebonite, acrylic and other more unusual materials.

Vintage Jambo Genuine Block Meerschaum Smooth Pipe, Hand Made in London, The pipe measures 14 cm and weighs 52.36 grams, RAF London Trip 17 July - 12 August 2017. Meerschaum is a very specialized form of clay and chemically known as an hydrous magnesium silicate. The geoloical conditions necessary for its formation occur in only two known regions of the earth s surface, East Africa and Asia Minor. The name meerschaum is of German origin and when translated becomes sea foam in English or ecume de mer in French. As it is one of the most porous materials to be found in nature, it will float on water when dry, hence sea foam. These qualities, porosity and lightness give it the distinction of being the best possib le tobacco smoking medium. At Jambo Factory, the raw material is cut into various sizes depending on the shape of the pipe to be made and emerges as a finished pipe after some sicty operations nearly all of which are carried out by highly skilled craftsmen.

Vintage Ben Wade Wooden Pipe, Hand Made in London, England, Straight Finish, measures 10 cm in length and weighs 54. 27 grams, RAF London Trip 17 July - 12 August 2017. Ben Wade is one of the great names in English pipe making.The company was founded by Benjamin Wade in 1860 in Leeds, Yorkshire, where it was located for over a century. Ben Wade started as a pipe trader, but yet in the 1860 s he established a workshop to produce briar pipes. The pipes were made in very many standard shapes - always extensively classic and very British . Many models tended to be of smaller dimensions. Ben Wade offered a very high standard of craftsmanship and quality without any fills. Thus the pipes were considered to be high grade and a major competitor to other famous English brands. The often heard comparison to Charatan seems to be a little bit inadequate because those days Charatans were entirely handmade.

Jacob’s pipe – or more correctly Jacob pipe – is uncommon in English in Joyce’s time. It is better known now through the activities of pipe collectors. According to the Revue de Traditions Populaires (May 1893, p. 270) la pipe Jacob was very popular in the Latin Quarter of Paris, and in Belgium. Le beau Jacob was well-known in France and elsewhere on the continent of Europe in the second half of the nineteenth century and some production continued well into the twentieth century. Manufacturers included Gambier, Fiolet, and Wingender. The pipe – at least in its later days – had a Bakelite mouthpiece, and wooden stem, and a clay bowl which was decorated with a person’s head. The head was typically that of one of the patriarchs of the Christian church, graced with a turban, though there was some variation in the designs (Joyce has a female head depicted on the clay bowl).

Genuine Meerschaum Warranted cigarette holder. It measures approximately 8.5 cm length and weighing 16 grams, in its original keepsake box. Purchased by RAF during his Turkey trip (Aug. 25- Sept. 02, 2018). A cigarette holder is a fashion accessory, a slender tube in which a cigarette is held for smoking. Most frequently made of silver, jade or Bakelite (popular in the past but now wholly replaced by modern plastics), cigarette holders were considered an essential part of ladies fashion from the early 1910s through the mid-1970s. The holder was also used as a practical accessory, as before the advent of filtered cigarettes in the 1960s, the holder served several purposes. A holder kept tobacco flakes out of the smoker s mouth, kept the thin cigarette paper from sticking and tearing on the smoker s lips, prevented nicotine stains on fingers, cooled and mellowed the smoke and kept side-stream smoke from stinging the smoker s eyes. Occasionally the holder would be built to encase a filter for taste and, later, for health reasons. Though modern cigarettes are generally manufactured with an existing filter, filtered cigarette holders are occasionally used as a secondary filtration system, and to prevent nicotine staining of the fingers. Cigarette holders range from the simplest single material constructs to incredibly ornate styles with complex inlays of metal and gemstones. Rarer examples of these can be found in enamel, horn, tortoiseshell, or more precious materials such as amber and ivory. A similar holder made of wood, meerschaum or Bakelite and with an amber mouthpiece was used for cigars and was a popular accessory for men from the Edwardian period until the 1920s.
