An awesome Rhodesian. I love the blast on this piece and it has a very unique Bakelite mouthpiece. This is a piece of Bakelite I do not normally use. It is a more vivid yellow and is more translucent toward the lip. This piece also has a smaller diameter shank for a more streamline look. All in all. A wonderful pipe! I discovered a superior technique than I have been recently doing for thinning my mouthpieces and I am very happy with the thinness and comfort. I will continue to do this to my mouthpieces. This piece is rusticated then sand blasted which results in a incredibly deep, craggy, almost coral like appearance. The rustication along with the rings from blasting it truly is an interesting finish to admire. Hand cut Bakelite mouthpiece w/Delrin tennon, hand made solid sterling silver fitment.
