    A relatively new pipemaker out of Italy who trained under David Iafisco. His work looks incredible so far. I decided to give him a shot and snagged this beautiful danish style oval shank pot with a stabilized mammoth accent inlay. Excited to fire it up!

    “Quick N Dirty” Restoration On A Barling’s Make Fossil.

    Probably a 50’s or 60’s pipe, not sure. Fun little restoration while watching TV with the wife. This one has a dented rim from knocking and a replacement tenon, so it will be in the home rotation. As such, I just gave it the quick n dirty version. Wet sandpaper, magic eraser, jeweler’s...
