L1 Billiard in walnut finish with saddle bit and flush silver
band.
While most smokers, and even pipe retailers wouldn't think so,
the Billiard remains the best selling of all shapes. One reason
is that virtually all lines, at all prices have a billiard, it
would be almost sacrilegious not to have a billiard. On the other
hand, it's amongst the most difficult to make with spectacular
straight grain. This is because of the shape of the bowl, which
not only doesn't follow the natural growing pattern of briar,
but actually curves back in at the top.
