For the second pipe of the New Year I completed this neat pocket pipe, you may consider it a nose-warmer. It is a neat compact piece with generous capacity and very comfortable. I would say the shape is a mix of a billiard and a brandy. The color of the ebonite with the black stain seems to be a nice combination and it is a sitter. I took the extra time for the silverwork on this piece and I am pleased with the look. Every cut in the silver is accomplished with hand files and then polished. Hand cut Carmel Ebonite mouthpiece w/Delrin tennon, hand made solid sterling silver “Double Diamond” fitment. Thank you very much for looking and your consideration of my work.
