Just thought to bring my recent observations to your consideration, did some of you happen to notice that most all small bowled(apple and that of reminiscent of Buldog shape but smaller)are becoming a pretty unpopular in our days and are getting harder to find,primarly I see those straight long and lean profiled little pipes are coming mostly from French manufacturers such as Ropp-France,occasionally Savinelli have makin them prince shaped apple bowled billiard pipes as well.
Just recently had me that of Peterson 407(yes,overpriced)Shannon from smokingpipes.com after quite a time of searching online,here in europe found none exept for Killarnay high polished the lineup, which I do not mind after having not too good experience with one of from this Petes serie.Yet even British based retailers told me they do not know
when they'll get them(407)restocked if ever,saying the lead time can be anywhere from few weeks to a year.assumably the Peterson manufacturers is quite a tricky to cooperate with,and now I'm glad aforementioned U.S based retailer could help me out with this problem.
