The difference between the Rook, Jack, Queen and King grades is the quality of the grain. An E appended to the designation (as in Queen E) seems to denote a plus. 'Checkmate' denotes a larger than usual size. Jacono's goal appears to be to offer beautifully grained pipes with no flaws; if flaws appear in the carving process, they are rusticated out. | The difference between the Rook, Jack, Queen and King grades is the quality of the grain.
