Any Experience with Anatoly Sibiryatkin?

I came across this pipe on ebay and won the auction. Somewhat accidental but it wasn't a ton of money so I am happy. From what I gather he is a Russian carver with low output. Anyone have experience with his work?

Never heard of him, but like the design. Very Kriswill in appearance.

Thanks, very similar especially the stem.
The photo below is the one that sold me on it. I like how sharp it is. Appears to have some nice grain too. We shall see.

Very sleek, easily a comfortable clencher.?

Just looked it up. All around very pretty, and with 17 bids, it drew a good crowd. Great price for that one too!?

How do you win an auction? I suck at it. Never won any bid. Usually go for "buy now."

I've "won" several over the years, but mine is mainly last second sniping.

I put my bid in with an hour or so left, I thought I would get sniped like usual.

Wow! I love that look. The stem is really eye catching. Let us know how it smokes.
