A Ser Jacopo
Factory Tour
Years before the briar is ready to be turned into
a beautiful Ser Jacopo pipe, it starts its journey
in the form of burls which are shown here after
they have been boiled. They will now sit for several
years, after which they'll be cut into the great big
blocks of "extra-extra plateaux" which is the Holy
Grail
of the pipe world. It's from these large, grain filled
blocks of briar that all Ser Jacopo pipes are made.
