This is the last Calabash by JT Cooke I have and it is one of my favorites.Smaller than the previous two and is a delight to look at and smoke.
The main body has that craggy rustication JT is famous for a nod the cap is done smooth which makes a striking combination and if that isn't enough the stem is tortoise shell in appearance. Keeping it smokey with some Esoterica Tilbury.

No, I keep being asked to show my pipe collection and there's no way I could take one photo and have it do justice to the pipes I own nor would anyone actually be able to know what they are looking at. I am filling them up one at a time and smoking them, consider me nothing more as part of the landscape.

I rather enjoy the selfies - gives a good perspective on the size of the pipe.
I LIKE that one - is the cap a different hardwood, or part of the briar?
