What a pipe! I am very pleased with this piece and I really like everything about it. The top is beautiful bird’s eye, although my photos make it look like it has dark spots, it is just an illusion. The top slightly curves down in two directions. Not typical! In the back it curves down in the 7 o’clock position and in the front in the 1 o’clock position not in line with the shank. The belled in sides give it a great look and it also makes it feel very comfortably e in the hand. The fishtail mouthpiece is also very comfortable. I really enjoy making different pieces like this and it is a sitter. It is a nice sized piece, please check out the dimensions. This came out with a great blast and I really like the color combination.. Hand cut Emerald Cumberland mouthpiece w/Delrin tennon, hand made solid sterling silver “Rope” fitment. Thank you very much for looking.
