Partially Sandblasted Bulldog with Bakelite Tobacco Pipe

The first words that come to mind are crisp and clean. The ridges on this pipe are very sharp, though you needn't worry about cutting yourself. A geometrical marvel, the pipe has a diamond shank with a "V" line on the underside as it transitions to the heel. The blast provides plenty of texture. The rim, though, is the headlining attribute of this piece. Smooth and sharply angled, it sports a flat, smooth top riding above the sandblasted surface for remarkable contrast of texture and grain. The yellow Bakelite saddle stem is subdued rather than bright and provides further contrast. Those who appreciate a Bakelite mouthpiece should be thrilled to see this piece.
