2016 Bruce Weaver Commission Complete!

[Chasing Embers]

Very excited here! Even during and after the hectic schedule of making pipes and going to the Chicago Pipe Show, Bruce amazed me with this wonderful creation.

My idea was a Christmas themed egg with ivory and a red Bakelite stem, and he more than blew my expectations out of the water!

Think I'm going to break it in good so that by Christmas, it will be a good mellow smoker for after the holiday festivities. Should wait, but I'm me. :mrgreen:

Thanks for all the kind words, Bruce is a great guy, and am more blown away by his work with each commission. So until he retires, he will definitely be my go to carver!
