An incredible NOS (New Old Stock) showpiece from the famous St. Claude workshop in France. Representing Butz-Choquin’s elite artisan line, the Maître Pipier ("Master Pipe Maker") series was reserved exclusively for their top craftsmen to sculpt high-grade blocks by hand (Fait Main).
This imposing, large-scale freehand showcases sweeping vertical flame grain on both flanks, an accented multi-layered shank with a brass ring, and a dramatic raw plateau rim. Unsmoked and perfectly preserved, this piece bridges classic French heritage with Danish-style freehand flair.

Radiant Flame Grain: Stamped "FLAMME" along the shank, highlighting 360-degree vertical grain lines wrapped in a rich auburn amber finish.
Raw Plateau Crown: Features a thick, craggy natural plateau rim with blonde highlights that contrast beautifully against the polished bowl.
Custom Shank Architecture: Features an integrated briar shank extension with brass spacer rings and a turned accent stem.
