Former Billiard, J Alan Bent Egg & Wayne Teipen Applefish

[peckinpahhombre]

I picked these three pipes up recently and haven't gotten around to posting pictures
The first is a unsmoked billiard estate made by Hans "Former" Neilsen.
The second is a bent egg by Jeff Gracik of J Alan Pipes.
The third is an unusual shape - what carver Wayne Teipen calls an Applefish

Those are very nice peck. I bet that "Applefish" is going to fit great in palm. Do my eyes deceive me or it that an apple green lucite stem the light is gleaming through?

I don't normally go for short pipes, but that applefish is just so darned cute. Congrats!! I'm very jealous.

From one Dean to another (yes, that's my real first name but everyone calls me Bo), those are some sweet pipes. I'm kind of a beefy guy (I love weight lifting) and short thick pipes look good on me.

 

[peckinpahhombre]

That's funny. My name is Dean and, oddly, people call me Dean.

Beautiful Pipes All! Every one of them would look great in my hand. 8)

Those are some beauties. I really like the J Gracik.

Great looking pipes.
Three distinctly different styles, yet somehow they all seem to reflect your refined taste. Enjoy them in good health.

My God.
What a tremendous trio!
The Former is a great crosscut with stunning birdseye and what looks to be an ultrathin comfy bit.
The J. Alan rocks like a rugged tuxedo oozing with sophisticated blast class.
But the Teipen Applefish!

It's just too sexy.

I love the curves. It looks to me like the perfect form, the stemwork blends effortlessly into the shape and adds even more beauty. Wayne's stains always glow, hard to capture on camera, but the color quality seems to shine through in these shots.
I love it.
And dude, you're the quickdraw king!

Your trigger finger should be molded and preserved for posterity by Cynthia Plaster Caster or somebody because that pipe got gone very fast!

I remember being in awe of that pipe when I saw it on instagram while it was being birthed and even more jawdropt when it was all finished...

Congrats on the trio,

it's like the Three Tenors or something,

indeed, if I had these 3 pipes I'd be floating tiptoe on clouds and singing opera!

:D

Gotta love Peck's pipe porn. Three absolutely stunning pipes. That apple fish looks amazing.
May they give you many enjoyable smokes.

I smoked the Applefish yesterday. Great hand feel and a much bigger pipe and bowl than I anticipated. Perfect for English blends.
