My New Rabbit Hole

If you like them, look up Hilson pipes as well. Big Ben acquired them and incorporated some of their designs into the Big Ben lines.

Ooh. I just Googled Hilson and really like what I see. Thanks for pointing me there!

I think what grabbed me about the Big Ben pipes that first caught my eye is how timeless their aesthetic is.

I have one Big Ben that my wife bought me just because the aesthetic appealed to her. It is a great pipe that I really enjoy and I hope to add more Big Ben pipes in the future.

Oh, yeah! The Mavyn is a great example. It's almost got a sort of Art Deco look to it, especially in the upside down shot! That's one of the pipes I want to pick up when I get bored of cute little nosewarmers/pocket pipes.

Welcome from S.W Michigan. Glad you found your way to a truely relaxing and enjoyable hobby that is pipe smoking.

Thanks! I really like this place. It’s unsettling, in a good way, just how many of my newbie questions don’t even merit a post simply because I keep finding the answers in forum searches.
