This product is a lot of three birdseye figured briar burl pipe making wood blocks, specifically Ebauchon R Type smoking pipe making hardwoods. These blocks originate from Italy. Finished Briar pipes shown in the pictures are examples only. They are not part of the offer. These are made by our buyers from the same Briar stock. Size from the highest dimensions. 2,3/4″x2″x1.75. Briar root, the burlwood of the Heath Tree, is also known as French bruyère. It is an extremely hard and heat-resistant wood traditionally used for making smoking pipes. The football-sized burls are harvested at the age of 30 to 60 years and then cooked for several hours, after which they are dried for several months before they are further processed. The wood is light brown to reddish brown, often beautifully textured, very hard, and heat-resistant, which does not affect the aroma of pipe tobacco smoke. The wood is also used for making jewelry, shaving brush handles, razor handles, key chain holders, and knife handles.
