The history of the workshop Genod goes back to the year 1865, when the pipe-pioneer [[Comoy's|Comoy]] founded this factory in the heart of Saint-Claude. He united the workshop with David soon afterwards. In 1923 the house Comoy-David is taken over by '''Georges Vincent''' who continued the production in the style of Comoy-David. From 1939 Vincent worked together with his son in law '''John Craen''', who became responsible for the technical development in the factory. | The history of the workshop Genod goes back to the year 1865, when the pipe-pioneer [[Comoy's|Comoy]] founded this factory in the heart of Saint-Claude.

Once again, Sebastien Beaud came through, this time in the form of the Genod briar. Proudly bearing many forms which pre-date Dunhill designs by close to half a century, the Genod pipe lays rightful reclaim to what truly constitutes a "traditional" shape, and boasts a breadth of ranges from 'petite' to near-Giant. | Once again, Sebastien Beaud came through, this time in the form of the Genod briar.
