The Antica are really nice pipes, Nice blast on yours , I have the 440. Love it ! Planning on getting the bent pot

Thanks, I’ve really enjoyed mine and have my eye on some others.

So, in between making pipes for sale and others, I’ve finally finished an idea I had for a pipe for myself and eventually make for others. My daughter’s favorite flower is a tulip. Now, I’ve seen other tulip shaped pipes but, this is my vision of what a tulip pipe looks like. I’m breaking it in with P.S Luxury Navy Flake. View attachment 272082

Great work!

Great work!

Thank you

Awesome rendition of a tulip. Love the green stem.

Lol I was wondering what people would think of that choice in stem but, I wanted to look as close to a flower. Thank you.

Nice Jacopo.I like it when they stick to traditional shapes.

Agreed and thanks,
It’s a fun front porch pipe when it’s full with a good blend.
I Don’t get to enjoy it as much this time of year due to the cold weather. Of course you’d laugh compared to what your used to this time of year.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, wild caught cat fish and snow peas dinner with a healthy size, calorie laden slice of Collin Street Bakery Fruit Cake and a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream for dessert. Always hated fruit cake until I tried this one. It's the only one I have ever liked. Anyway, I'm a quarter of the way through the last of this tin of year 2014 Orlik Golden Sliced in a 1999 Brebbia black sandblasted quarter bend egg small pocket pipe with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Still smoking neglected pipes. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.


I let Tomato the Brave in the house so Abner the Eager could eat in peace. After he finished eating, Tomato jumped up on my chair for attention. He's such a happy cat who still thinks he's a kitten.

I’m with you on the fruitcake. I think I’ve only had one or two over the years that I actually liked. The rest were meh at best though I’ll always have some my mom makes.

Ten Russians in the Pete. Starting a new book. Nice to relax after a pretty long day!
