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)

#1012

Stummel: spanish briar

Shank extension: acrylic

Height of bowl: 46mm

Depth of tobacco chamber: 38mm

Bowl size: 19mm

Length of pipe: 138mm

Stem material: ebonite

Weight: 49g

Price: R1,700 ($230)

#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?

#1010

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

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!
