Sandblasted Acorn with Bakelite (345) Tobacco Pipe

With a deep blast highlighting both horizontal growth rings and vertical grain, this diminutive piece from Micah Cryder packs an impressive visual punch for such a relatively small pipe. Supporting that principle are the black Bakelite mouthpiece and bright blue acrylic accent ring, neither of which detracts from the lightly stained bowl, only adding visual interest. Of a size easy to slip into a pocket, this piece can travel while still offering all that one expects in a high grade.
