Newly Restored GBD Supreme 1589
This is a beautiful pipe and a bit of a mystery, in the pipephil and pipedia GBD resources “Supreme” isn’t noted as a line of GBD pipes! Likewise I can only find shape 1589 shape elsewhere in the “Topaz” acrylic stemmed version. Regardless, the briar is gorgeous and I love the shape. It...- teaman

Hi Everyone, I love research and have hit my end with this pipe and got most of my insight from reading older posts here on old Barlings!
