Sandblasted Bent Billiard Tobacco Pipe

A beautifully deep bend, with a high transition that makes the shank seem part of the bowl, defines this pipe as a jaw hanger with neoclassical appeal. The grain is spectacular, with the vertical grain even more pronounced than the horizontal growth rings. The tan and black palette is likewise classic, with only a modest ring of smooth briar at the end of the shank for contrast. Lighter in the hand than it appears, its tobacco chamber is deep. This is a pipe balanced for just about any thing you might do while smoking. Warm and inviting, it's a smoking instrument that would be equally appropriate for contemplation or for jaw hanging for hands-free smoking.
