Guide to Pipe Shapes and Styles: The Prince

The Prince
The Prince was named after the Duke of Windsor‘s favorite shape, when he was Prince of Wales, and it first appeared in the 1920s. The Prince‘s wide base and rounded shape makes it look quite elegant and it is often fitted with a slightly bent bit. It is normally made in three sizes (small, medium, large) and there exists a variant called the Cognac that is based on the shape of a brandy glass."
