Dear God, What is that Thing?

I found this lurking in the shadows on ebay.

Did Erik Nørding drop acid or something?

The seller may be on acid as well, the stems are reversed.

The pipe of the Old Gods.

How do you mean, all danish pipe shapes look like this?

 

[autumnfog]

It does remind me of a certain movie.

 

[troutface]

Oh dear. Well, there's no accounting for taste.

 

[Kobold]

Looks like a deranged fireplace poker.

 

[greeneyes]

Wonder how many bags of Esoterica you'd get for buying one of those ugly things. Fair amount I'd gather.

 

[kcghost]

A truly grotesque pipe. The guy must have been in a bad high when he made this.

He’d be better off using that as a hatstand for the trilby in the background. Quite a nice looking hat, as opposed to the monstrosity of the pipe!

 

[Servant King]

Looks more like a sex toy than a pipe. Certainly there'd be a more favorable place than eBay to sell such a thing, and one where the buyer wouldn't be hassled to provide feedback on the item...

Macho clencher

Ohhh yeah! I’ll be smoking that at our next Central Florida meet-up.

Reminds me that I have to schedule a colonoscopy.

I suppose it is described as a 'sitter' !

This post could be used for my reaction to most non traditional pipe shapes. Which is odd because I usually like avant garde weird post modern in most other things. Well also freaking hated the molecular gastronomy trend. I guess I am traditionalist when it comes to luxury consumption.

It and this one are sitting in my cart as a debate for which one to get for my upcoming 50th birthday.

Does the shank extension double as a tamper??? If so, do it.

Considering it's a Preben, it wouldn't surprise me if it does.
