Sadik Yanik Flower Maiden Out Of Clearance Delay

[Chasing Embers]

After an extended stay with customs and a red tape labyrinth, Sadik Yanik's pipe is finally in my hands. Much smaller than I imagined, but still with a 2+ inch deep chamber, it's around the same size as my IMP dublin though strangely much lighter in weight. The amount of detail in something that small makes my head hurt.

Nice

Glad to see the journey was safely completed. That's good it's so light...and definitely quite detailed. It's an unusual design for a nude...with a basket on top of her.

Try not to fondle it too much.

PS: on second thought, that poor Dublin needs a rest...go ahead and fondle the new one for a while.

Effortlessly clenches.

There's still white on it, can't stop yet!

What a nice set of...
Meerschaum pipes you have their Embers.

Happy smoking!!

Man, you get color on those things fast! That Dublin looks great. My only meerschaum is that one I carved, and it gets smoked pretty regularly, but it’s just now starting to get some noticeable tan hues in places, and it’s probably been over a year since I carved it and started smoking it.
You still smoking the skull pipe often?

 

[CoffeeAndBourbon]

What a great pair! I know they will get well used and colored.

 

[Fiddlepiper]

Incredibly detailed carving on it. It's not to my taste but you can really see the quality of work shining through. Very nice indeed.

 

[shanez]

Very classic carving! Definitely an heirloom piece.

That Dublin looks great.

Smoked five times per day since April 8th.

That's the Autumn pipe.?

It's the last of a seasonal avatar set being summer for the flowers.

Any opportunity to get the other seasons? It’d be cool to have a set!

Cracking set!

yeah it's kind of amazing how quickly meer colors. People always gave me this impression it takes forever for it to happen. Sure it might take forever to get to that point where it's practically black but they start coloring almost right away I don't smoke mine very often and yet they have quite a bit of color happening already. I kind of enjoy taking it slowly and savoring each noticeable change.

savoring

That just means fully enjoy. It can be done slowly or quickly.

you're not a big fan of implication are you?

you're not a big fan of implication are you?

Not really, tend to be very literal. Likely a side effect of years of working for and with Asian efficiency inspectors.
