Smoking Grasmere Flake from 2020 in this late 19th century or early 20th century BBB meerschaum 'cutty' pipe with silver repair work and new faux amber stem. The pipe was a gift to me from Eric in Georgia many years ago who used to post on this forum but I have not seen him around for a while. He was into those beautiful aluminum air biscuit caravans that were very popular in the 1950/1960s. A lovely man who was very fond of his Condor and if he is reading this someone I would welcome a call from at anytime. Enjoy your morning since I have a lot of ground to cover today and I will look in on you all about coffee time!

@FoggyMorning Nice pipe; I'll have to get a Williamsburg one. Would be perfect for Redcoats & Revolutionaries. I think the Jamestown pipe suits the Sealed Knot / English Civil War re-enactments.
I think Jamestowne is a beautiful pipe and its "foot" seems way more functional than Williamsburg's. But I might have trouble with lighting baccy up due to the more cant bowl.

@FoggyMorning Yes I agree, I especially had a bit more trouble lighting the twist I was smoking at the Battle of Nantwich; part of the authentic 17th Century smoke I guess!
