'''THE CROWN PIPES'''
'''THE CROWN PIPES'''


The original '''WINSLÖW-pipes''' are of course rather expensive, but Poul also wanted to have some cheaper pipes to offer to his customers. So, some years ago, he started to make a series called '''CROWN'''. He absolutely states that these pipes are no seconds to the original WINSLÖW-pipes. They are just made from a cheaper piece of briar and have an ordinary mouth-piece, not a hand-cut one. From personal experience I can affirm that also the CROWN-pipes are of a very good quality.

So, some years ago, he started to make a series called '''CROWN'''. He absolutely states that these pipes are no seconds to the original WINSLÖW-pipes. They are made from briar with less dense grains and potential - sorted upon arrival in his workshop. They have a preformed acrylic mouth-piece that is finised to the pipe and not a hand-cut acrylic stem. From personal experience I can affirm that also the CROWN-pipes are of a very good quality.
