My collection and its latest addition

[ahmadothman]

Very nice! I happen to also like the leather stand with the AE quote. May I ask where you had gotten it?

I got it from thebackyshop.co.uk they are a reputable Tobacconists in UK.. they ship worldwide.. and you can have a VAT return as well

Every pipe smoker needs a 999!

That is a nice pipe, and a good collection. I have a Grafton 999 that I keep going back to, no matter how many other pipes I have. There is just something about that shape, and it's a great smoking pipe.

Aye, true
And yes, guys.. the Rhodesian shape has something about it.. quite magical

 

[cynicismandsugar]

Great choice! I hope it treats you well for years to come.

Congrats on your growing collection ::

Nice start and I too am a Rhody and Bulldog fan.

Well thanks a lot for posting the pic of that 999 Ahmad. Now I am having to fight the urge to purchase the St Patrick's day 2016 version. I fear I am going to lose that fight.

Excellent start, and an excellent Rhodesian. Could never never quite get into the Rhodesian shape--a had a sandblasted Drac for a short while--but you have a great beginners collection. You'll love Peterson. I'm prejudiced toward them, most of my collection is Peterson, and a few Nordings. But Peterson makes a great pipe. I was lucky enough to pick up a Drac 107 recently; now I have three of them. Ditto on the Irish Harps. Every collection should have at least one.

Indeed.. I think I am in love with Peterson as well.. I plan to get another two when I save up for them, an ebony tankard and an Atlantic Billiard

Very aesthetically pleasing pipe... How does she smoke?...
Btw... That extra Falcon bowl doesn't count as an extra pipe! Looks like you'll have to buy another one to reach 5. Wink, wink...

Haha, and I thought I'd get away with the 5 count. Well, till I get my next pipe, probably another Peterson It'll have to do
And she smokes like heaven.. broke it in with just two smokes, both pleasant and clean...it rarely gets hot and mostly comfy to clinch with your teeth.
Lovely piece of work

The red and black swirl in the stem is hypnotic. Congrats.

IT is the reason I couldn't resist it

A small update on this, I broke it in successfully, which was a breeze to do. And haven't dedicated to any type of tobacco. I just left it for my Favourites, whether they are English, or Aromatics. And I had a few smokes in it and it is quite lovely.. In all aspects. Packing, lighting and clinching, it rarely gets hot and cleaning it is a breeze. A lot of people said Peterson's don't get disassembled easily but this one just does
