Butz Choquin Einzelstücke (NOS)

Butz Choquin is one of the most renowned names in the French world of pipe making. Founded in 1858 in Metz, the brand later moved production to Saint-Claude, the historic centre of European pipe craftsmanship. For decades, the workshop produced models admired for their quality and distinctive design language. With the closure of the manufactory in 2018, a pipe-making tradition of more than 150 years came to an end – and no new Butz Choquin pipes have been produced since.

This makes the Butz Choquin NOS pipes particularly valuable. The abbreviation NOS stands for “New Old Stock” and refers to pieces that were never used but stem from old stock. Each pipe is an original from its time of manufacture, unsmoked and often still in its original packaging. As these items are no longer being produced, they represent true one-of-a-kind pieces available only in very limited numbers.

For collectors and enthusiasts, these pipes hold a special appeal. They unite the traditional craftsmanship of Saint-Claude with the uniqueness of historical models that can no longer be found on the market today. Acquiring one of these pipes means not only owning a finely crafted object but also preserving a piece of pipe history.

The Butz Choquin NOS series therefore offers a rare opportunity to experience an untouched pipe from a bygone production. Their individuality, historical significance, and limited availability make them prized companions for connoisseurs and discerning smokers alike.
