briarwood
Prickly shrub timber
Briarwood is wood from the root burl of the tree heath, prized for making tobacco pipes.
The dense, heat-resistant grain produces durable pipes that develop character with use.
A briarwood pipe is the classic image of the contemplative smoker: He tamped the tobacco into his briarwood and lit it.
Also spelled brierwood.
