About the Item
This pipe is a Borlings “Garnet Grain” model, made in London, England. The bowl is crafted from briar with a rich reddish-brown finish that highlights the birdseye and flame grain, giving the piece a warm, organic character. The stem, now faded to a brownish tone with signs of oxidation, contrasts with the polished wood, lending the pipe an aged, well-used appearance.
The stamping on the shank reads “Borlings Garnet Grain, London England”, affirming both its line and provenance. The “Garnet Grain” series was known for its focus on showcasing the natural patterns of briar, often with a smooth finish that emphasized depth and character in the wood.
With its compact size and clean English styling, this pipe embodies understated elegance, and despite the wear on the stem, it retains the charm of a collectible piece that reflects the mid-20th-century English pipe-making tradition.
