There is more to a perfect aperitivo than just the right recipe. It requires experience, intuition and craftsmanship. These are precisely the qualities that also characterize the AMBA White Spot series by Kopp Pipes. At the heart of the series is Amboina, considered one of the most sought-after and expensive burl woods. Its expressive grain and remarkable depth make it a highly desirable material for sophisticated applications. It is used to refine luxury vehicle interiors as well as for exclusive writing instruments and high-quality knife handles. Each AMBA displays the natural color and grain of the wood in its own unique way: sometimes light and subtly figured, sometimes rich in contrast and vibrant. Since hardly any two blocks of wood are alike, Kopp Pipes selects each piece by hand. Small irregularities and inclusions are part of the natural material and contribute to the individual character of each model. The hand-oiled surface emphasizes the natural variety and depth of the wood, while a finely polished aluminum ring on the shank provides a subtle, modern contrast. The series is available in six different bowl shapes. It is produced as a one-time edition and will not be part of a recurring series. Anyone choosing an AMBA receives a piece that is truly one of a kind. AMBA – perfectly imperfect. Every pipe is unique.

Tip number 1
A filter system for pure enjoyment.
Only available from VAUEN
Our “Conex System” ensures an airtight fir by lightly pressing on the mouthpiece.
The result: the smoke which enters your mouth is 100% filtered.
Tip number 2
Full enjoyment from the very beginning
VAUEN pipes don´t have to be slowly broken in over a long time because the wood is protected by a special lining in the tobacco bowl.
Even by temperatures of 300 to 400°C, which occurs when lighting, cannot harm the pipe.
Tip number 3
Achieve natural beauty
To make a pipe even more beautiful, the grain of the pipe is taken into account during production.
There are two classic grain patterns:
the straight grain and the bird´s eye grain.
In order to achieve these, the raw briar blocks from which the pipe is created, needs th be cut along the natural grain course.
Tip number 4
Sandblasting makes the most of the grain of the pipe
A pipe bowl which has a beautiful grain but with inherent imperfections is sandblasted. In the process the softer parts of the surface are washed out the harder relief.
The advantages are, as with rusticated pipes, a greater ruggedness and a cooler smoking pleasure.
