Rare Chacom De Luxe HAWKBILL #442 Shape Vintage Pipe, Square Shank and Stem. Flame & Birds-Eye Grain. Excellent Condition! Very Clean & Waxed. France

Description & Info:

*All estate pipes are ready to smoke out of the box and come in a new sock. I spare no expense in packaging so you have a great experience.

About this Pipe:

Here’s the only Hawkbill I’ve seen before by Chacom and the first Hawkbill pipe I’ve actually had despite wanting one for my collection. However, I have a different shape in mind as I already have several Dublins in my collection. They’re one of my favorite shapes for smoking Virginias and Burley.

This Chacom De Luxe has a beautiful shape and somewhat Art Deco appearance. (to me at least)

There are no adornments such as bands or dual finishes and I like this. It lets the uncommon shape do all the talking. The lines are clean and crisp with a great transition from a Dublin bowl to a square shank and tapered stem. There are a couple small tooth dents by the button which I left on purpose to make sure there was plenty of material left for strength. It’s otherwise been fully refinished, de-oxidized and polished to a deep, shiny black. I applied Obsidian Stem Oil for prevention of future oxidation with its UV blocking. Stem fit is great and the chamber is also in great condition. Everything has been thoroughly cleaned inside and out. The stain is a vintage amber and saddle tan showing off an orange/red hued color that looks great against the black ebonite stem.

Stamping is all there with no fading of note. All is easily legible. There’s no charring or carbon on the rim.

Please look at the photos as they’re your indication of condition along with dimensions, that are listed below. If you have any questions, please ask before purchasing.

Thank you so much for looking. - Peter

Policies, Shipping, About me, and the Restoration Process:

I BELIEVE IN THE GOLDEN RULE. I sell and ship everything as I’d expect to receive it myself or better.

PLEASE READ:

I don’t own the United States Postal Service. Once I’ve shipped your package, I have NO control on delays.

BELOW: Policies, Shipping, My Restorations & a bit about me.

About Me:

I am obsessed with the hobby! I’ve got bad PAD & TAD. I am also a stay-at-home dad for my special needs son who is amazing! I really needed a way to feel accomplishment and stay busy while trying to earn a bit extra for equine therapy and other things like that. This has really helped a lot and while stressful at times, such a fun thing to spend time doing.

Shipping: I ship within 1-3 business days or however it is stated. I try to shop same or next day but sometimes I may have a lot. I take my time to pack items extremely safe. I’ve never had an item arrive damaged. In most cases, I have a poly bag on top to make it rain resistant and a bit more secure. I don’t charge for shipping. My fees are for postage and materials only.

RETURN POLICY:

If you’re not 100% happy, please let me know. I’ll do whatever is fair to fix any problems. I accept returns within 2 weeks provided: The item has not been used. It is in exact same condition as the photos in the ad and when I sent it out. Buyer pays shipping for returns unless there is an error on my end. I almost never get a return. I try hard to not have any surprises. :)

Why the Grass? - It helps the pipes stay in position for taking photos actually. It works so well, I’ve not changed to something a bit less funny looking. Stands out too doesn’t it?

My Restorations:

Every pipe is individually and carefully selected before I do anything. After a thorough examination, what is done to the pipe varies on need but the end goal is to have it looking as good as it can possibly be, regardless of the time it takes me. At the least, even pipes that come to me unsmoked will have a couple hours of meticulous work into them. I’ve spent years studying from the best, buying and making the best equipment for the job and I’ve done over 1,000 pipes, easily.

Stems are resurfaced as needed for scratches, indentations and oxidation. I can spend hours just on that. I apply Obsidian Stem Oil a couple times during the process for more protection. The pipe is carefully cleaned inside and out and inspected again. Each pipe is buffed with white Diamond using my commercial grade digitally controlled buffer, not a bench grinder turned buffer. This removes any dirt, old wax still on and other accumulations as well as brings the factory stain back to an excellent shine. My waxing process is time consuming and I’ll spend an entire day on 10 pipes just for waxing. I apply thin layers of carnauba then left to rest and hand buffed before applying another 2 layers. These multiple stacked coats leave a long lasting, durable and very shiny finish.

There’s much more that is done depending on each pipe. I am as conservative as possible yet look over every detail like the shape of the button and a flashlight down the mortise. I’m as much or more of a pipe enthusiast as anyone and the obsession caries over into these pieces I have for sale.

If you ever have questions on any of this, feel free to email me.
