Arabian Tours Unearths Timeless Treasures: Introducing Exquisite Vintage Tobacco Pipes

SPOKANE, WA – November 8, 2023 – Arabian Tours LLC, a Spokane-based company specializing in sourcing unique and authentic global goods, is thrilled to announce the launch of its curated collection of vintage tobacco pipes. While many know Arabian Tours for crafting unforgettable travel experiences to the Middle East and beyond, few realize the company’s passion for uncovering hidden gems with rich histories – and these pipes are no exception. “We've always been about bringing a little bit of the world back home,” explains [Name & Title - Please replace with actual person] at Arabian Tours. “We started collecting these pipes ourselves, intrigued by the craftsmanship, the stories they tell, and the connection to a bygone era. We realized others might feel the same way, so we decided to share our finds.” More Than Just a Pipe – A Piece of History Forget your modern, mass-produced accessories. Arabian Tours’ collection focuses on authentic, vintage tobacco pipes dating from the early 20th century through the mid-1970s. These aren’t just smoking instruments; they’re tangible pieces of history. Each pipe carries the marks of its time, from the materials used to the subtle wear and tear that speaks to years of enjoyment. “We’re not talking about reproductions here,” emphasizes [Name & Title]. “We meticulously source these pipes from estate sales, auctions, and private collections across the US and occasionally, directly from Europe. We want to offer something real – something that someone cared for, enjoyed, and that carries a genuine story." What Makes These Pipes Special? The collection at Arabian Tours isn’t limited to a single style. You'll find a fascinating variety, including: Briar Pipes: The workhorse of the vintage pipe world. These are known for their durability, heat resistance, and ability to impart a naturally sweet flavor to the tobacco. Arabian Tours features a wide range of briar pipes, from classic Billiard shapes to more unique and artistic designs. Many are from renowned British and French makers. Corn Cob Pipes: A rustic, affordable, and surprisingly flavorful option. While often associated with a simpler lifestyle, well-made corn cob pipes can provide a surprisingly enjoyable smoke. Arabian Tours’ selection highlights pipes in excellent condition, often with original felt or varnish. Clay Pipes: Often referred to as ‘churchwarden’ pipes due to their long stems, clay pipes offer a cool, smooth smoke and a distinctly vintage aesthetic. These pipes, though delicate, are a real conversation starter. Meerschaum Pipes: Considered a luxury material, Meerschaum is a soft, white clay that allows for incredibly detailed carving. Arabian Tours offers a limited selection of beautifully carved Meerschaum pipes, often depicting intricate scenes or figures. Unique & Unusual Shapes: Beyond the standard shapes, Arabian Tours’ collection includes quirky and unconventional designs, reflecting the creativity of pipe makers from different eras. Condition & Care: A Blend of Character and Functionality Arabian Tours understands that vintage items aren’t expected to be perfect. Each pipe in the collection has been carefully inspected and graded based on its condition. While some pipes may show minor wear and tear, this is often seen as adding to their character. “We try to be completely transparent about the condition of each pipe,” says [Name & Title]. “We’ll note any cracks, chips, or other imperfections in the listing. We also clean and sanitize each pipe before it’s shipped, but we leave the restoration to the buyer. A lot of collectors like the patina and character of a well-loved pipe.” The company also provides basic care instructions with each purchase, advising buyers on how to properly clean, maintain, and enjoy their vintage pipe. They suggest using pipe cleaners regularly, avoiding harsh chemicals, and rotating between several pipes to allow each one to fully dry between smokes. Why Choose Arabian Tours for Your Vintage Pipe?
