Description
Gaia, a divine www.pipe.from Saint-Claude:
The Eole Gaia pipe is a piece conceived by La Pipe Rit's team. It is a series we had made by a local craftsman in Saint-Claude (French Jura mountains).
For this line, we wanted a straight, classic pipe, with a medium-sized bowl, made from high-quality briar. Meerschaum is a rare material will make the pipe more heat-resistant, while acting like a filter. It naturally traps tobacco impurities. If your pipes tend to overheat often, we strongly recommend you try out a meerschaum-lined pipe!
A French pipe with a lot going for it:
The straight shape of this Eole pipe is no coincidence. This billiard shape makes it fit very well in the hand. It also insures a smooth draft and an easy clean! This pipe comes with a metal filter, a classic, well-known system among smokers. Depending on your preferences, it will of course be possible to take it off and smoke without it.
Regarding the stem, we chose to go with vulcanite, as it is the most comfortable under the tooth. Maintenance-wise, we recommend you use stem polish, applied with a cloth. By doing so regularly, the stem will keep its shine for several years!
