I read somewhere that you can't go wrong with an Italian Pipe. Many customers won't even consider a pipe that's not of Italian heritage. Either way, you simply cannot go wrong with a Crown Pipe - Italian Made, real briar, available in a variety of colors and finishes and a value that is hard to beat. Now, pipe enthusiasts who enjoy using a pipe that takes 6mm filters like a Dr. Grabow can enjoy the fantastic styling and affordable prices of Crown Pipes. Choose from the Prince, Regent, Royale, Court, Jewels, and Featherweight models with solid engineering and a smaller price tag than Dr. Grabow while exhibiting beautiful styling. Due to the success of the 6mm filtered Crown Pipes, they have released unfiltered versions for those who don't like filters. Take a look at the recently released Aristocrat, Castle, Majesty, Monarch, and Nobility lines if you prefer unfiltered briars at budget-friendly prices.
