Straight Poker I Carved And Some New Entries

[pentangle]

Much more into traditional shapes, these days i carved some pipes and that is one of these,Bird eyes are very good for my taste and the double stain is also in a much traditional vein.Today i got a large selection of estate pipes from a guy that got them from his father passed away.I paid 670 dollars for 31 pipes some are entry level but most are top pipes.I found 2 castello old production unsmoked and one gently smoked, about 10 savinelli punto oro (some unsmoked) and four Caminetto business of very early production,parker and peterson are present too.Well for some days i'll not carve pipes but will restore these,As well as i will finish i will be happy to share their pics with you.I'm very happy for the purchase and also because i could have bought them for a small fraction of the price paid because many others offered much less.The price is good for me but i have not stolen the pipes from that guy

Another wonderful piece of work there Maurizio. And good for you for giving a fair price for the estate pipes rather than just getting them for as cheap as possible.

Maurizio, man, you turn some truly amazing work. I've always disliked the look of pokers, but thats a real work of art you have created. Kudos!

Smiles, that website is even more than I expected - I expected brilliant, but found perfection! Thank you for sharing it.
Maurizio, procrastinating about selling your pipes to the world is cruel and selfish (insert motherly, warm smile) ... while you are "waiting to see if you are ready", the world of pipe smokers is more than ready to embrace your works of art, buy them, smoke them and treasure them. Every day that slides by without your pipes being available to us is a day that you, and the smokers, will never get back.
