Butz Choquin Supra Fait Main

[BROBS]

Just picked up this unsmoked beauty from a seller out of France. Anyone have any idea on era? I’m thinking late 80s.

This is the box:

Unusual shape for a panel. The sudden sharp angle of the heel is very attractive. Is it a sitter?

Can't answer your question but it's a beauty.

Great looking pipe. Have you smoked it yet?

Just got it all polished/waxed up before the pics. About to smoke an inaugural bowl of Directors Cut.

That's pretty cool, but it's not a Peterson! Congratulations!

That's in interesting piece. I have a Dublin shape from the same series, just no fancy gold band like yours.

That panel is unique. French pipes in general are so above their price point. It's a real pipe making culture in St. Claude and surrounds. The pride and competition is intense. I love my BC's, Chacoms, Vuilliard, and Genod. More for your money.

I have the same socks.

Very nice! I have one or two. Love my Butz!

She’s a big hoss of a girl. Eva.

everytime I go to the door to take a pic she thinks I’m going outside.

Does it say anything on yours under the “maitre pipier” where mine says “Supra”?

my cat's like that with the fridge. Thinks he's going to get his weekend fishes. Though he always tells me he's gonna die if I don't give him the fishes everyday, so far he's been fine.

Interesting quasi-paneling. Cool pipe.

Supra Fait Main sounds like a dope French rap name!
