I saw this pipe on eBay and was intrigued.
At first I thought it was rusticated, but the more I looked it seemed to be almost natural.
Is this a huge flaw/inclusion/whatever in the briar?!?!?!?
Can pits be that massive?
Hopefully, the answer will be that it's actually rusticated and I am mistaken.
If such huge pits do exist in briar blocks, well then that just ups my respect for all the pipemakers.
