Since August 29, 2025, due to the current customs policy in the United States, duties and related charges have unfortunately increased. Most buyers are already aware of this situation, as it affects all products not manufactured in the USA.

We would like to reassure you that the price of the item itself has not been increased – we continue to offer it at the same fair price as before. 

However, the customs duties must now be paid in advance.
For full transparency: the actual shipping cost is only $9.90, and the remaining amount you see under “shipping cost” represents the customs fee.

The good news is that once this is paid, we will handle all customs clearance, duties, and insurance on your behalf.
Your package will be fully cleared before it leaves, so:

• it will not get stuck at U.S. customs,
• you will not be called in for additional paperwork,
• and no extra payment will be requested upon delivery.

Everything will be arranged smoothly, using the premium service of the German postal system, known for its security and reliability, and your order will be delivered directly to your door without any issues.

We understand that these higher customs costs are frustrating – they were a shock to us as well – but please note that this is due to the new U.S. import regulations and applies to all foreign-made products and all American buyers. We remain committed to offering our products at fair prices and maintaining the same high quality as always.

We truly thank you for your understanding and trust – we greatly appreciate your support!

ASHTON HANDMADE XXX SANDBLAST SADDLE BENT BRIAR PIPE

with Cumberland Stem

Handmade in England

incl. Original Ashton Leather Pouch

"Bill Ashton Taylor was a master pipe maker in the world renowned Dunhill factory, until he opened his own workshop in the north-east of London.

After his death in 2012, his right hand Jimmy Craig took over the production.

The line up is strictly English. The pipes are famous for their taste, which is a result of a special 'secret' treatment of the wood – the so called oil curing."
