Falcon Pipes
The Falcon pipe originates from the United States, and was designed to produce a cool and dry smoke. This was realized by using an aluminium frame stem with a twisted inner stem.
The Falcon was designed in 1936 and numerous counterparts were invented known as system pipes. The detachable bowl makes it into a so-called system-pipe. Some of these design have a futuristic look.The production of the Falcon pipes starts after World War II in the United States. England joins in 1958 and it is there where the product is perfected. Especially in the 1960's the system pipe became a huge rage and every smoker owned at least one pipe of this type. The Falcon undoubtedly is market leader, but comaprative products were maded in pipe factories in France and Italy as well. After 1970 the production declines. Pipe smoking becomes less popular, also the Falcon has lost its modern look. The American factory closes its doors and the production was taken over by the English factory. Finally the factory is solt to Merton of London in 1993.
The manufacturing continues, although the output declined.Especially in the past decennium the Falcon pipe became popular again. Young smokers discovered them as an ideal lightweight pipe with a modern appeal. Certainly the revival is due to the optimal characteristics of the pipe, also known as dry smokers. Next to the comfortable weight they smoke extraordinary cool and dry. For young smokers the pipe matches perfectly with their interest in the fifties.
