Congrats!

That is a stunning pipe. The stem looks like molten gold.

Looks smaller than what I expect from you Brad but a photo of you smoking it should set me straight lovely pipe.

To me, that photo makes the pipe's bowl look like the size of a small lady's fist! How big is it?
And, echoing, it's a beauty, bowl and stem. Well, the shank isn't shabby, either....

 

[wyfbane]

It's Brad, so it is likely the size of a sizeable woman's fist.
It is a thing of beauty, Brad! Nice score!!

If I remember it's a good sized #5, weighs 71grams , bowl is over 2 inches tall, little over 6 inches long. I wanted a smaller hanger and it looked like it would fill the bill. Premal gave me a very fair price. I am anxious. I believe it has Abalone on stem.

Such a beautiful pipe Brad. Seems a shame you have to go through the bother of breaking it in. So just send up to me, and I'll break it in and get it ready for you to smoke, and I promise not to use any nasty stuff in it either! :mrgreen:

That is some amazing Birdseye! Does Parks make his own stem material? I've never seen anything like that.

 

[gloucesterman]

Brad, that's one handsome pipe. Al's right the stem really sets off the grain. Enjoy.

 

[dixie]

Whoa! That is an impressive pipe...Love the grain...Love the stem. Congrats!

Wow, I am blinded by that birds eye. Hi octane occhio pernice.

 

[papipeguy]

That's stunning, Brad. Enjoy many bowls on the porch with it.

 

[tbradsim1]

I have been in contact with Michael and think I will have a Canadian smooth with taller bowl, long shank and the same stem material so I can have the pair.

Bradley, that pipe is gorgeous, I love the birdseye on that baby. Congrats on a great addition to your collection, and I hope you get the other pipe to make a pair. I know you will love how it smokes as my first Parks is a killer smoker.
