Cats Paw Pipe

[Pipeoff]

Posting a Cats Paw pipe made by early female carver from SK Canada, Terri Weist. Think it is cherry wood. Don’t think this husband wife team is no longer active. Have rarely seen on the used wood market. Good smoker.

Elegant shape. Looks like an early spring flower.

Nice. Highly distinctive. I like the ragged plateau brim and the spur on the shank. The shape doesn't look like a cat's paw to me, but I agree it looks like a tulip as it opens.

My lack of info, the maker logo on the stem is a Cats Paw, the family has a feline collection.
