The First Pipe I Carved

[pentangle]

I mark my pipes with two stamps to print on briar "JANUA" and "FH in Genova".The J on stem is print using a single stamp that i put on the fire before.Then i use acrylic colour and cyanoacrilate to fix, at finally stem needs to be sanded and buffed.

really ugly pipe, sorry, it's no good.
I will PM you my address, just send it to me.
I will dispose of it properly by slowing burning organic matter inside the bowl and bringing the smoke through the stem. Really tough process, but I will do it.
