Yep.?Is that 'purple' one morta?
I've got a feeling that they are going to be spending a lot of time with me and Lovecraft, Kafka, or Poe reading.Fascinating and beautiful.
What a brilliant concept.
Bigger that they appear, close to a 2 inch depth on both.Very nice pipes! They seem to defer from your normal large chamber sizes.
And you know what a cheap ass I am, the price still has me in disbelief. I would've expected to have taken out a second mortgage for that set.Absolutely gorgeous!!! Congratulations, Cap'n. I hope those pipes become excellent smokers for you. I'm absolutely green with envy.
Than they seem small on this pictures, love them! Normally i'm not a big fan of bamboo shanks, but these seem nice because of the organic shape of the bowl.Bigger that they appear, close to a 2 inch depth on both.
lucky guy. Now you're just rubbing it in, ha ha. JK. Those are stunners to the eyes. And, those bowl sizes... I can't wait to hear how well they smoke. Congratulations again.And you know what a cheap ass I am, the price still has me in disbelief. I would've expected to have taken out a second mortgage for that set.
I just hope there's no customs hang ups like there was with my Yanik.lucky guy. Now you're just rubbing it in, ha ha. JK. Those are stunners to the eyes. And, those bowl sizes... I can't wait to hear how well they smoke. Congratulations again.
It's the stand that makes the whole set work so well.Yep.?
Andrey is such a great guy, very humble as well. He felt that the stand was flawed and threw it in for free while I'm staring at it stunned by it's beauty.
Indeed. Many of their artisans even outside the pipe world are world class.The Russians have produced some very artistic carvers.
