These are from Holland. I believe that Zenith is the brand. I have at least one more. They smoke like a clay, and don't get quite as hot.Citizen B wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 8:57 pmRon, can you tell us more about these porcelain pipes? I am intrigued.Ronv69 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 01, 2023 10:20 pmI have 3 or 4 German clays with Vulcanite stems. They are superior smokers to the all-clay pipes. I have several double-walled porcelain Zenith pipes that are even better. But none come close to briar or cob.Mr Beardsley wrote: ↑Sun Oct 01, 2023 4:16 pm
Mine is a vulcanite stem jobber. So as long as you don't grab it by the bowl, you're good. It's a mistake you really only make once

Are they double-walled or solid ceramic?
I suppose you wouldn't know unless you broke one but I am curious. That would make the smoke cool on the outside and ghost-free on the inside.
Thank you for sharing. I am going to look this up.

Note the hole in the middle of the bowl, which I am not a fan of unless it is a Kirsten.

3.) I wish I could get once with those blue delftware glazes. Those are some sweet looking pipes.
