I can’t for the life of me remember where I came upon this pipe, much less who made it, but I obviously took the time to save the image. I’ll grant you that it must have taken some experience and craftsmanship to make such a pipe, but give me a freaking break. I get enough occasional glances from people while smoking a pipe on my front porch during the warm months, but this would top the proverbial cake. Nothing like sticking what looks like a lead elbow joint in ones mouth. Then again, more likely than not anyone would take notice, but I just had to post this oddity. Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder.
