Chance to Display Pipes -- But Not Sure How?

Display them loud and proud, just not in a sunlit area, your stems will thank you later.

I display mine in a glass front china cabinet, people enjoy seeing them but I have never had any one open the cabinet without asking first.

Nobody will question that a pipe smoker lives here when they enter our home but I wish I had away to display the whole collection. I have a few things scattered about the house but my dream is to turn a bedroom into a library featuring some sort of chest like the Dunhill 365 day case I saw pictured years ago. My wife is on board but I need that do re mi. Right now other than the things scattered about and a table full of stuff at hand 30 years in the hobby is reduced to a few shelves of a bookcase. 8O

I don't "hide" my pipes, but I guess military life carried over with regards to my pipes. I have them all divvied up and organized into pistol cases. Many have seen the photos, but here is the latest one:

This way they are secured and quasi-organized.

That's a great way to organize and reduce oxidation on stems, wyfbane.

How did I miss this?

I got over Elvis shortly after. That and a trip to Graceland killed Elvis for me.

Blasphemy!!! I was in line for some part of the Graceland tour back when I was in college. It was January 8th, His birthday. I watched this chick break down crying and draped herself over his grave, in the middle of this sea of flowers. I watched security, escort her to a special room and give her tons of tshirts, food, and garb. I bet you can guess what I did. I became the biggest blubbering fan ever laying limp on His grave, and got to hang out with Priscilla and other Presley important folks, and came home with a handful of every different type of Elvis swag. I had a complete collection of Elvis shirts to wear for my last two years of undergrad.
Oh, oh, yeh, hang them pipes up. ::
