I am very pleased with the results of this piece. The blast is wonderful and it is very comfortable in the hand and mouth. The highlighted dark brown stain goes well with the green Ebonite and the top is slightly rounded. It has a fishtail mouthpiece which makes it very comfortable to hold in your mouth. . Hand cut Green Ebonite mouthpiece w/Delrin tennon, hand made solid sterling silver fitment. Thank you very much for looking.
