Just Another of My Pipes I Carved

I love that almost rounded-mosaic sort of shape on the top of the bowl mate, very attractive little number.

Beautiful pipe, the grain really pops out, What is the stain color ? How did you do it ? Two coats or just one ?

That's a beautiful shape and a nice piece of briar! Nice work.

you will never bore me with your pipes, i think they are very finely crafted and beautifully finished....as some above have also said, I am not a huge fan of chunky square bowls, but you have really brought out the best in the grain there and I am sure they would be a joy to smoke....where do you sell these?

Well will try to answer to some question, if my bad english will permit :D
About coat:it depends on briar , when briar has not a well defined grain two coat are necessary.On the contrary one it's the good choice.The problem could be What color it's necessary to use.All ebauchons has a very own soul and needs a different colour.I use the standard wood colour, like walnut,mahogany etc etc and make several mix between them
About where i sell these pipes: Well i never had sold one in the past and don't think to came into business,simply i do it for fun and smoke , but pipes in collection are now redundant and i can't honestely exclude that one day i will do

You're all good friends i appreciate your comments
