I just finished this beautiful little Prince, sold by the JW Wanamaker Department stores. It was made by Sasieni, and is the Shape 38 "Bowler".

Pretty spiffy pipe and re-furb! :mrgreen:
I like the slight suggestion of a chin on the bowl. Is that just an artifact of the camera angle or lighting?

Al I envy your work on pipes! That one's a beauty. I'm going to go out on a whim and say that you aren't keeping that one though.

Pretty sure that's lighting- a shadow.
Correct, a beautiful round bowl! (the Stratford shape has the jutting chin).
Yep Didimauw, I'm trying to downsize my pipe collection, but I just love working on these kind of pipes.

LOVEly work, Al! You guys who do magic like that impress the heck out of me. *I* certainly couldn't manage the patience for something like that. :)
