The earliest reports on '''Ascot''' pipes point to the French company '''[[La Bruyére]]''' in Saint-Claude. La Bruyére was a joint venture founded in 1932 by '''[[Chacom]]''' and another, yet unknown firm. Disbanded in 1957.

Chacom continued Ascot as a sub-brand. Elder pieces don't bear any signature of the manufacturer. Recently seen Ascot pipes have Chacom's logo "CC" on the stem. These pipes, described "Army push-bit system, acrylic application in horn optics, 9 mm filter", are marketed in Germany.
