Reserved for Cat - Freestanding Golden Oak Quick-Smoke Pipe

Description

"Nothing serves life and soundness of body so well, nor is so necessary as the smoke of the royal plant, tobacco."
-Dr. Cornelius Bontekoe, 1685

This has been one of the most difficult pipes I have made so far. It took a long time to complete, but was worth every minute. This pipe has beautiful grain. Tiger's stripe runs across the front, back, top and bottom of this pipe. Tight bird's eye grain is very visible on the sides. It stands upright firmly, but also rests well if you lay it down.

Briar. Stained with golden brown oak. Polished to a high gloss, and coated with carnauba wax.

This pipe is around 5 3/4 inches long, and a stummel that stands 2 3/8 inches tall. The tobacco chamber is 1 1/4 inches deep, with a diameter of 5/8. It is just over 3 ounces.

I ship my pipes with a handmade cotton draw-string pouch. It ties with a bead carved from the same briar block the pipe came from. I leave the bead lightly sanded and unstained. I like seeing what the wood looked like raw. However, if you would prefer the bead polished and stained to match the pipe I will do so. Message me when you place your order and I can finish the bead. It does take some time to work the bead so it is as smooth as the pipe, so expect an extra day before I can ship.

Please message me with any questions.
