Not all pipes that dramatically color are Marxmans, and not all are ancient Algerian briar.

Tonight I loaded up a extremely high condition Loewe Extra 314S (presumably a 1980s pipe) with Grousemoor.

I tried waxing it while I smoked.

Why did one side color so much more than the other?

It is fun to play with your toys.:)

No Marxman ever made had the grain of that Weber Golden Walnut behind the last photo of the Loewe.

Did the Weber come this pretty, or did it color this pretty?
