Kaywoodie pipes are as American as apple pie. Starting in 1919 as a pipe brand for KB&B, a pipe shop dating all the way back to 1851, Kaywoodie has since then been a staple of American-made pipes. In the present, many Kaywoodies are collectors’ items, in addition to being fantastic smokers.

The Kaywoodie Hi-Bowl was introduced in the 1950s, and was a distinct addition to the designs previously offered by the make. As the name implies, it was a line with a particularly tall bowl, and this one takes the form of a stack zulu, or perhaps cutty, of sorts. It’s a beautiful pipe – fairly long, but very light in shape and weight. At 28 grams, and with its vulcanite stem, it will clench like a dream, and look eminently elegant all the while.

The condition is very good. There’s some darkening and finish fading on the rim, but these are superficial things that won’t impact the pipe’s smoking properties. They barely register in regards to its aesthetic properties, either.
