I have a few.. Also some very nice unsmoked/as new ones, that I bought about 15 and 5 years ago, but still haven't smoked. Not that there is anything wrong with them. I hope.
Can we get more of an explanation on that. My answer is no, every pipe I own gets smoked the minute it hits my door way. If I am in the middle of another pipe, I stop smoking it and light the brand new one. Yes I am just like a kid at Christmas.
I love my clays, and aside from my morta, I smoke those most often.Anything not made of clay

smoke it damn it. I bet it smokes like a champ. A flake packed properly in will give a decent smoke. And my guts tell me that pipe is a golden smoker.I have an extremely small, straight grained Eltang with a foot and a gold band. I have it sitting on my desk and will probably never smoke it. It's very small + I prefer it more as a display piece. It's the only pipe (out of the 100 or so I have owned) that I have never smoked.
You have any pipes that you just like to look at instead of smoking?
meant for a shelve not for a mouth.And this Ivory pipe which I have not smoked for over 40years because of the extremely poor drilling. I bought it in the mid-70s when I knew nothing of what made a good pipe.View attachment 127828
I got a couple of those....That’s like buying a car you won’t drive.
Such a fantastic looking pipe! I love it!And this Ivory pipe which I have not smoked for over 40years because of the extremely poor drilling. I bought it in the mid-70s when I knew nothing of what made a good pipe.View attachment 127828
I thought of using one of those mesh thingies or a few meer chips at the bottom of the bowl.Such a fantastic looking pipe! I love it!
Is there no way to get it smokable?
