The pipes on this page are standard modern-style ones;
we also offer antique-style pipes which play the same as
modern ones, but have a somewhat different appearance.
Our pipes are kept here in stock and are set up and carefully checked over by an experienced inspector before they are sent out to you. (They are not drop shipped, uninspected, from a wholesaler.)

A Note About Our Budget Pipes
There are a lot of bad things being said about pipes made in Pakistan. Some of these things may be true about some pipes from Pakistan, but we need to get one thing straight. Not all Pakistani pipes come from the same manufacturer, any more than all American cars do. Our Mid-East pipes are decent, and a great value for your money. Here at The Harp and Dragon we check them out; if by accident you get a defective set, we will replace them (this holds for everything we sell, actually).
