Yes, pure lapis lazuli, my favorite stone. 69€ was the price, it was a super good deal, 1 of a kind.
Not shaped like an opium pipe like the majority of them either. I'm so tired of seeing lapis obelisk pipes.

I have found that money certainly gets things moving. It's better to cry in a Rolls Royce than in a Honda.Yeah there’s certainly a way if you can pay
I've never seen one made completely of it though I've got one with a lapis mortise.
Can I cry in your Rolls next time I’m down?
You can cry in my Bentley. I don't own a Rolls Royce. Too much upkeep. Hardly any issues with Bentleys.
I know you really want this pipe, but it seems to be more trouble than it is worth,
And I have to say my first thought is when it seems too good to be true or too good to pass up, the first one is probably the correct one. Or too good to be true, it probably isn't true. I guess the question is what grade of Lapis Lazuli do you expect it too be? At a lower grade that price isn't that much of a wow. Though I would wonder if it was made with the intention of being smoked or if it's more of a decorative pipe?
Finally not a fan of the fit of the stem to the shank. I wouldn't buy a briar pipe at that price with a stem that fits like that (mainly because I'd think if that's the level of care of craftsmanship and attention to detail, what else did they treat like a D student)

They've sent me an email and confirmed that they've purchased it and are awaiting shipping info.
I understand your view, but there aren't any other lapis pipes on the market. I'd rather workshop a subpar pipe and elevate it's looks myself than just not have the pipe. Besides, I already bought it.
Well if you're going to workshop it that's a wildly different story. I have no experience with such things and pipes. And yeah I do want to buy some skanked up estate to learn on but that's a so far in the future it might be a literal pipe dream.
Hey a toy to play crafts with, is different then an off the shelf pipe. In this case sounds more fun. Glad you could get it.
Me too, I'll have you know, I would never buy a poor quality briar for that price. If I want a fairly cheap briar, I shop grabow. What do you think of grabow?
