Looks like a Herreria to me! The 2nd pipe of his that I bought was also an unfinished natural, the first such that I've bought. It's grunged up nicely. In the image of the chamber, it looks like the airway might be a little low where it meets the chamber, but don't worry about that. The bent that I bought had a similar arrangement and it smokes beautifully. I just take a little extra care with the cleaning. Congrats!
Thank you for your comments guys! I'm very happy with it. It looks a lot nicer than these pics. Will upload some of my own later today.
@Gloucesterman, it is finished! Or to be precise, unfinished. The pipe will colour with use in a similar way than a Meer. It is not stained or waxed. Just natural wood that will colour with use.
@Sablebrush, when I met him today Ezequiel told me thta he is doing the low air ways deliberately, as he belives it contibutes to a good smoke. We'll see...
Would you please upload some pics of how your natural pipe looks now?
Cheers,
J

I would be very tempted to treat an unfinished pipe with Odie's Oil. Here's a poor example. Odie's really gives a nicer look than this pic shows.
