H&H El Niño in a J Everett pot. Listening to Seatrain Marblehead Messenger.
I really like the four styles of carving pattern on that meer; very well done !
Thanks, I found it at the Chicago Pipe Show. The outside lattice is separated from the inner smooth billiard bowl. I found that fascinating and really cool! I am still not sure how it was manufactured.
I am intrigued to see how it colors over time. I did have a problem with the stem and had to bore it out because it became completely plugged after only 2 smokes, but I have it working well, at least for now.
Enjoying some Kendal Mixed in a Mastro De Paja Canadian.
C&D Exclusive in a Nuttens Mini Bing
Decided to finish the day off with some half and half in my cob.
Gawith Hoggarth’s Dark Birds Eye in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've passed the half way mark of this bowl of year 2018 Sutliff Dunhill Elizabethan Match in a straight smooth brown 1960s-70s BBB Own Make 506 Canadian with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Harry the Hairy seemed rather passive today. I've never seen that in him before. A while ago, I sat down with him outside, and he laid in my lap while I rubbed and scratched him. He perked up after that although Daisy the Feral Princess was not especially pleased to see it. She has a way of staring when she shows disapproval; sort like an old school teacher who got an apple from all her students, but you. Watching the Braves-Twins game.
Boswell‘s Northwoods in a Marxman Mel-O. Hot evening in the desert.
Sun Bear Black Locust in a Miscoi Pipes Lovat. IPA on the side.
Having my first bowl tonight. Had it in the cellar for past 7 years. Pure bliss.
Off to work with a bowl of year 2018 D&R Windsail in a smooth straight dark brown family era “Canadian” by Sasieni with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Going to listen to the rest of the ball game.
GL Pease Chelsea Morning from October 2011 in a Dunhill Millennium Shell from 2000
C&D Bayou Morning in a Peterson Kildare Canadian. My only P-Lip pipe, purchased from that outlaw, BROBS.
Exclusive in a Danish pipe shop 50th anniversary
