The exact briar grain in the photos will not match the pipe you purchase. Each pipe has their own unique grain.
The Algonquin series from Brigham is an entry level option from their core line of pipes. The medium brown finish highlights the grain while a nice polish delivers a glossy finish.
Brigham uses a dot rating system to rank the quality of their pipes, with the Algonquin finish being a 2 dot. The 2 dots on the side of the stem reflect that ranking.
