Briar retailers

Post by CastAxe »

I have been looking around for briar retailers and i cant seem to find that many. Pipe makers emporium has a good selection but they are sold out of a lot of what i would like to purchase. Anyone have any other good links?

This comes down to how much you want to pay, how long you want to wait, what kind of pieces you'd like to buy (including what size).....

But people who sell briar include

PIMO pipecraft
JH Lowe
PipeMaker's emporium
Jaume Hom (Briarblocks.com) - spain
Romeo Briar (romeobriar.com) - italy
Janzen-pfeifen.de
Yazidbriar.com

For your purposes, CA, I'd say the first two I mentioned are a good bet. The stuff pipemaker's is carrying is nice but quite expensive.

I'll second that Tim West @ J.H. Lowe motion. Secondly, it's better to call rather than e-mail, he's a super friendly and helpful guy. Quite frankly I was really impressed with the care given to each order.
Not to mention he has good prices, and carries delrin, lucite and a lot of other useful stuff as well.
