Giraffe pipe ?
Regarding "Giraffe Pipe":
Hello. I'm new to this site, and, looking for information on a calabash gourd with a mouthpiece that is stuck in the stem. The reason I'm asking you is because the only marking on the pipe is a small giraffe figure on the stuck mouthpiece. And this has been a challenge to get information on it. It's never been smoked but I hope to adjust the mouthpiece prior to trying it. Any brand knowledge and how to separate the mouthpiece from the stem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Place the pipe in the freezer for thirty minutes to an hour to try to loosen the stem.

Here are pics of the last 2 Jack Howells I was able to buy since he went back to his real job. When he has time he knows I want at least a few more.
This Rhodesian is the second to last pipe from Jack.

Here is the last one.


I think as a group we have done a great job of giving a good amount of our business to our American artisans. Keep up the great work guys.
