Big Ben is the best-known pipe name associated with the Dutch Gubbels factory, a company that helped define post-war pipe production in the Netherlands. This Caprice 108 is new old stock, made in Holland and drilled for a 9 mm filter. Its untouched chamber makes it a much better survivor than the used examples normally found from this line. The pipe measures 5.00 inches long, with a 0.83-inch chamber opening and a chamber depth of 1.70 inches. The pipe is stamped “Big Ben”; “Caprice”; “Made in Holland”; “108”.
