Last week arrived a Bay Denmark Apple with Bamboo, I just opened today, I waited to have something new for the new month, LOL ?

Knowing about Tom Eltang, and then I learned later about Mike tutoring under Tom, he is also from my understanding working with Tom, I thought, if Mike is with Tom, these have to be great pipes.

My first Bay Denmark I bought here, and later sold, but soon realized I had to find another to replace, and after an extremely long time looking and waiting, I found this beauty at Tabaccheriacorti, an Apple with Bamboo accented with a dark red Cumberland stem, that has a carbon fiber tenon.

A big shout out to Luca at the Tabaccheriacorti, 5 Stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐️ where I purchased this!

Luca gets the pipes directly from Mike, and is the only dealer at present in Italy for Bay Denmark.

This picture represents the true dark red of the Cumberland stem. When you take the stem off, the end of the Bamboo has a piece of red Cumberland accenting it, like the accent you can see on the chamber side. With the stem in it’s hard to notice the ring near the stem, in person holding it, you can see the nice accent.

I took three closeups so you could better see the details. With just a little light shining on the pipe, it helps to show you how glossy looking the bowl is, it’s quite shiny.

Here’s some pictures to give you size perspectives, also, small elegant Pipes is one of Mike’s signatures in pipe making, and the Billiard I owned had a similar sized chamber, and I could sip on it for hours. So if you’re also into small pipes, don’t let the tiny size fool you into thinking these don’t smoke great or last long when smoking, because they do!

Here’s the beast a girl name Pi’i, pronounced like ‘Pea E’, in the background, crashed on the floor! LOL ? Pomerania Chihuahua mix, they call them Pomchis, this is a side note for the animals lovers in the house! LOL ?

Two of my pipes, Radice Rind Straight and a Dr. Grabow Commodore 65 Zulu, both fairly common sizes for pipes to give you a comparison.

I forgot to shine a light on the stem to show the grains/streaks in it. I tried to capture as best possible, but in person, when moving it around under light, it has a nice metallic shimmer.

I was just doing searches online, to see what else was out there for Mike, been looking long and hard for something else, and then the search results for this post came up on Google.

I can’t believe I’ve had the pipe one year, and I still haven’t smoked it LOL 😆
