Small Clay Cutty Pipe #2

 Like meerschaum, clay pipes give one of the cleanest and driest smokes around, thanks to the highly porous nature of unsealed (fired) clay. 

Clay pipes were first introduced into the UK during the 1500’s, when tobacco was first brought back from the new world. What started off as practical design soon changed over the coming centuries, from classic cutty’s to elegantly designed models. The shape and bowl size fluctuated over this time, due to availability and cost of tobacco.
