It has been a very long time since I last posted, my apologies, but I have a very good reason. My baby girl is 2 months old now and have severely limited dad's time with pipe making! But I did manage to get this little chubby done. Here are the specs:

Stummel: briar

Bowl height: 48mm

Depth of chamber: 39mm

Size of bowl: 18mm (conical)

Length of pipe: 117mm

Stem material: handcut ebonite

Stem insert: briar and acrylic

Weight: 58g

Price: R840 ($120)

Shank extension: acrylic

Height of bowl: 46mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 38mm

Bowl size: 19mm

Length of pipe: 138mm

Stem material: ebonite

#1011

Stummel: briar

Endcap: white acrylic

Height of bowl: 42mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 36mm

Bowl size: 22mm

Length of pipe: 129mm

Stem material: vulcanite
Price: R1,200 ($160)

A billiard with a kick! A thicker shank, widening towards the stem and ending with the white acrylic, and then the slim and elegant stem. Works quite well together, don't you think?

Stummel: briar

Shank extension: african blackwood

Height of bowl: 39mm

Depth of tobacco hole: 35mm

Bowl size: 22mm

Length of pipe: 132mm

I have always been crazy about Lovats, and this one is no exception. There are a couple of external blemishes in the wood, therefore the very low price. As a sidenote: I never do fills and never try to hide pits or blemishes. Wood is a natural product and should be seen as such.

#1009

Stummel: briar

Height of stummel: 45mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 39mm

Bowl size: 21mm

Stem material: vulcanite with acrylic ring

Length of pipe: 122mm

Price: R900 ($120)

A little pocket-sized pipe with a very thin bit. Unfortunately there are a couple of exterior blemishes (biggest one on the underside of the bowl), which is why the price is at such a steal.

#1008

Stummel: briar

Stem material: vulcanite

Price: Not for Sale

I have been wanting to to try my hand at one of these for a very long time. A couple of months ago, a customer came to me with an old Kiko of which the screw tenon was very loose. Unfortunately, when re-drilling, the meerschaum lining broke into pieces. Feeling sorry for the pipe's premature "death", I promised to make something similar. This is my result.

Height of bowl: 42mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 35mm

Bowl size: 19mm

Length of pipe: 154mm

Stem material: vulcanite

Ring: sterling silver

Price: SOLD

I am not sure if you should call this an elongated billiard or maybe a liverpool with a long stem! All said, I think it is a very decent pipe with great classical lines. Enjoy!

Stummel: briar

Height of bowl: 38mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 33mm

Bowl size: 19mm

Length of pipe: 153mm

Stem material: vulcanite

Price: R1,200 ($160)

With a small tobacco chamber, this pipe was made for those people who like their pipes to be on the smaller side. The reverse saddle bit was thrown in to make the pipe a little different to the norm.

Stummel: briar

Height of bowl: 45mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 33mm

Bowl size: 22mm (conical)

Length of pipe: 144mm

The Dublin has been one of my favourite shapes for a long time and one that always is a pleasure to make. It has quite simple lines, but never fails to be elegant. This pipe, among other things, have unfortunately a lot of little pits all over the stummel. If I had the ability to do my own sandblasting, it would have been the ideal candidate for a try-out. It will still make for a really decent pipe. And that at a really decent price!

Stummel: briar

Height of bowl: 45mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 37mm

Bowl size: 23mm

Length of pipe: 109mm

This one is for a long-time customer of mine that is crazy about Oom Paul's. Hope you enjoy it for years to come!

#1003

Stummel: briar

Height of bowl: 47mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 37mm

Bowl size: 22mm (tapered)

Length of pipe: 142mm

Stem material: vulcanite with acrylic inlay

Price: SOLD

This is one of the first acorns that I tried my hand at, and I really like this shape! It fits the hand wonderfully and the flow it has is (for me, that is) quite sensuous. Hope you enjoy it too!

#1002

Stummel: african blackwood

Height: 45mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 37mm

Bowl size: 22mm

Length of pipe: 155mm

Stem material: vulcanite

Price: SOLD

A lovely, flowing "dress" pipe. There is a little mark on the stem/shank joint, which is the reason for the really low price. Otherwise it is perfect and a real steal.
