“Peter, owner of Radiant Pipes, is a top-tier seller on Etsy and eBay and my go-to pipe shop. He is a master pipe restorer. I recently purchased a beautiful Barling pipe he had listed. The pipe was in mint condition as described. The care and passion that go into every step of the sale, from upfront communication to personalized packaging. He also includes a few pipe maintenance items to try. Nobody on Etsy or eBay takes the time to prepare and ship your purchase as Peter does. Stellar communication, inventory, packaging, and quick shipping. I hope you have the opportunity to purchase from Radiant Pipes and experience the exceptional process, care, and passion that goes into each sale. Buy with confidence!”

Coming from the Stokkebye Family Collection, I was excited to get this pipe. They have a vast private collection with Peter and Eric at the helm of course.
If you are a fan of small brands, those that diverge from the standard names and offer some cool pipe history in a very nice, excellent condition pipe, this Duncan Hill Christmas 1992 smooth Canadian definitely fits the bill. With almost 35 years of age to this pipe, the briar will be further seasoned from it, only improving its smoking qualities. This pipe was part of the Stokkebye Family pipe collection making it even more special.
Sold through E.A. Carey for much of its time (if not all) and even now, the Duncan Hill Aerosphere system is an interesting one and patented as well. These pipes are made here in the USA in Bristow, Oklahoma though other sources state England for this pipe.
This one caught my eye as it’s the nicest one I’ve ever seen. Before I even saw the brand name, it got my attention for all the rich brown briar in the Canadian shape with the Brass ring on the shank as part of the Aerosphere is also a unique item.
The 3 bands at the end of the shank are a nice addition and the 2 on the outside match that brass nicely. I included some pictures at the end of the patent.
The pipe shows off some awesome flame grain and bird’s eye grain without a dull area and an unfiltered vulcanite stem to finish it off.
This Christmas 1992 special release is in fantastic condition. It’s very near mint and no damage or blemishes really. There’s always a chance for small handling marks but I didn’t notice or recall any. It’s very clean inside and out with a smooth chamber and freshly buffed and waxed with carnauba.
The price is above what you’ll see for most listed but there isn’t a comparison I could find from the brand in beauty, condition and a year made stamping. I did not leave much room at all for myself so pricing is firm as usual. I bought this because I was so intrigued by it. If I can break even after seller fees, I’ll be happy. :)
Review all photos and dimensions carefully prior to purchasing. I take pride in my pipes and all are ready to smoke. - P

I BUY PIPES! SINGLES OR ENTIRE COLLECTIONS. CONTACT ME FOR MORE INFO.
Signature Required on Delivery - For high price items and if you are a new customer, a signature on deliver may be required to prevent loss.
*If the pipe comes with an original box and / or pouch, I will certainly mention it in the description and usually shown in photos. Otherwise, it is for the pipe only, though I do package every one with a generic sock / pouch.
» You get what you pay for.
At a minimum, I do everything possible to make sure the pipe is at its best and packaged well. All pipes are carefully inspected, cleaned, gently buffed, waxed with Carnauba and the stems are hand polished and oiled as needed. For a decade, I’ve put all I have into these pipes, packaging and more. I really enjoy it and my fellow hobbyists.

I do not have the time to reply to messages asking for deals. If I have room to move, I’ll list the pipe as “Or Best Offer.” Prices are firm. Please consider the large seller fees, taxes and equipment investments. If I don’t reply, no offense intended. It’s just time consuming to explain all this in each message. I appreciate your consideration.
All info such as filtered or no, dimensions and info is listed above, most of it at the beginning of the description.
Expect replies during normal business times. I reply as fast as I can, but if it’s the weekend or middle of the night, it may be a bit before I’m able to read and reply or if the weekend, I will reply on Monday.
ABOUT RADIANT PIPES VINTAGE RESTORATIONS & CURATED BRIARS:
*I COMBINE SHIPPING. Easy way: Add multiple items to cart and check out. It will apply discounts automatically. If you purchase multiples separately and I notice, I’ll refund any and all excess shipping costs.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING:
Due to several thousand dollars lost in international shipping, I no longer do this. My apologies. It’s cost me way too much money.
RETURN POLICY / NO RETURNS
Due to abuses of my open-ended return policy that I’ve had in place since the beginning, all sales are final and all items sold as-is. If there is an issue not mentioned in the description or the photos, I will take the pipe back for up to 1 week after delivery, as long as it is clean and in the exact same condition as when sold. Please make sure you read the entire description, the dimensions and review all photos before purchasing. It is my goal to make you 100% happy with your purchase so feel free to contact me with any questions as well.
Thank you for understanding. - Peter
