Dr. Bob Kiess UNSMOKED Rusticated Ball/
Featherweight/ Handmade, U.S.A.
Dr. Bob Kiess Pipes are made from top
quality Grecian and Italian briar. The stamping is inspired by the 911 events. There
are three grades, the Patriot, Heritage, and Ambassador. The colored dots of
red, white, and blue on the bit reflect the American flag. Kiess uses a very
unique rustication on some of his pipes, such as this one. The detail and time
spent on the process shows the care he puts into each and every pipe. ~
