Yesterday I had a half-bowl of Villiger 1888 in my new Neerup smooth Billiard? What would you call it?

I'd call it huge. :) But if I had to guess as to the official description of the shape, I would say a brandy. The sides aren't vertical like a billiard, and they don't curl in like an apple.
It's a really nice shape. Well done, Jason.

Thanks Simon! A Neerup Smooth Bent Brandy it is then. It isn't really THAT huge. I'm not saying it's not a hunk of very nicely shaped wood, I'm saying it isn't going to give me a 90+ minute smoke is all. The walls are really thick and the chamber is quite a ways from the bottom of the pipe.
I'm gearing up to head out for a smoke of some C&D Serenity Series: Consolation (Thanks to my Secret Santa.) in my MM Legend bent Cob.

Jason, I'd go with calling it a ¾ bent brandy too. Really nice and comfortable looking pipe.
