Following the death of Henri in 1924, the company (London & St Claude factories) is taken over by Paul & Adrian Comoy with help from Emile & Louis Chapius. By 1928 the London Chacom factory had begun completely making pipes in London and the supplies from St Claude were no longer required. Rather than closing the original factory the company was renamed Comoy (a combination of both names) in 1928. Shapes, ranges and grading remained the same between the two factories and Chacom was only sold in France, Switzerland and Belguim. Founded in 1825, Chapuis Comoy is the oldest pipe manufacturer still in existence. Situated in the middle of the French Jura lies the pipe mecca Saint Claude, where the first pipes were made out of Erica Arborea root wood, better known as briar.
