The Royal Dutch line of pipes was first introduced in 1972 after Queen Juliana awarded a royal warrant to the [[Gubbels]] factory, and are being sold again today. The current production line advertises the use of 40 year old briar, and the pipes sport vulcanite stems and a light walnut stain. For more information see [[Gubbels]]. | The Royal Dutch line of pipes was first introduced in 1972 after Queen Juliana awarded a royal warrant to the [[Gubbels]] factory, and are being sold again today.
