All Emperor series pipes have a plastic plug attached that may be taken out to accommodate a 9mm filter. The cork-lined shank makes it simple to separate the stem from it. The pipe in the image is a member of the Julius Caesar series, characterized by its reddish-coloured, highly polished bowl and shank. Other characteristics are: - The pipe's shank is stamped with the series and model. - Where the shank meets the stem, there is a trademark band. - Possible 9mm insert (sold separately) - Acrylic stem in black |
