My Two New Neerups!

[hawky454]

I had the opposite thought. Lovely as Peder's work is, the chambers were too small to keep.

Interesting, all my Neerups, the chambers are huge, even on the small pipes.

Mine is like said a grade 2, according to the seller 22x44 mm inside dimensions, higher grade 3 is 21x43mm but with somekind of metal on the band, there is also a grade 4 for sale which is smaller at 21x38 but with it seems silver band. The grains on both higher grades are clearly nicer than mine.

Thanks for the info, that clarifies it for me! Well, my first Neerup is a 3. So I guess I got 2,3 and 4 covered. What is the highest grade for these?

I've not seen Neerups higher as 4. The more exclusive lines are under his own name P. Jeppesen.

My largest was .76"x 1.67".

If anyone didn't know, Neerup was named for Peder's grandmother.

I own 2 P.Jepessen Ida pipes..They are beautifull..Volcano one smokes great...The freehand is so so and it burned through after like 10-20 smokes...I was shocked...The freehand shape was cut a little too much so thickness of the wall was compromised at the rear side area of the bowl...Finish on them is great...Mouthpiece is beautiful but inside -the part sliding into the shank is quite thin ..But no problems with that yet...

Beautiful pipes. I hope they squeeze every drop of flavor out of your tobacco for you.

Nice. I’ve been looking hard at adding a Neerup to the herd

I’ve been doing some soft browsing myself. I don’t think I can justify another pipe right now but if I was going to buy one I like how Neerup shapes and wood look, often with a high polish revealing exceptional grain.

I have two Neerup pipes. One I use for English blends, and the other, a churchwarden, I use for Virginias. No break in period. Can’t wait to find the next one I fall in love with!
