When I first found the Briary, I took it for granted that tobacco shops were all like this. And, then after dropping in on these shacks and barren shelved stores while travelling, I quickly figured out that The Briary was special. It is a huge multi roomed old farmhouse with mostly high grade pipes, with a few more affordable pipes in the mix. And, many bulks and a wall of tins. There is a huge walk in humidor that isn't out of the norm for a nice cigar shop and a nice lounge. There are other shops as large and nice as this, but I haven't found one with the selection of high caliber pipes like this. Many will stock heavy in factory pipes, but Skip has the luxury of having Ser Jacopo's artists just drop in one day, and Ian Walker is scheduled for a visit also. You may find Nording hanging out one day or any of a number of Italian or Danish artists. Skip works hard to bring in guests and keep a nice selection. It is a rather special place.
^ Ha, see, there's a piece of the furniture from years ago. What a geeky looking chair, but it has a nice Becker. ::

You might be right Michael, you always stand there, as it could be seen in both pictures, right in front of that tin of Old Dublin.
Wow, what a lovely looking shop. I really wish I had a place like that to hang around and meet fellow pipe men. You fellas may be aesthetically challenged but you're lucky with it ;-)
Seriously and with far less cheek, nice picture chaps. It's good to see members meeting up. It's sometimes easy to forget that those we interact with on the web are actually flesh and bones peeps.

The closest thing i have to a shop like that, is a cigar lounge with every cigar known to man. And over in a dark damp corner there is a display of knock off corn cobs and 1 tin of 4th generation pipe tobacco marked with the reasonable price of 25 dollars :crazy: Definitely not a pipe smokers world in this place!
