What Were They Thinking?

[hauntedmyst]

I think the craftsmanship and execution is good but...but...come on! What were they thinking?

 

[lightmybriar]

I love the classics, but I also tend to venture into the bizarre territory every so often...and this is one of those “so oftens.” I like it haha!

 

[Bengel]

I am thinking "mushroom" nice artistic expression on the carvers part. Danish classical and freehand combined? I am going with liking it too.

 

[didimauw]

That's obviously where you hold it at, rests on your fingers nicely I'm sure!

 

[warren]

I bet the carver was thinking, "Money maker!" I bet he's right.

 

[hawky454]

Wow, I actually really think that is cool, classic shape with an avant garde twist! I’d probably consider buying it if it weren’t some ridiculous price... I’m just assuming it is. That would smoke like a stack and I’ve always wanted a stack for my St. Bruno. Anyway, I think they were thinking originality which should be celebrated in my opinion. Too much mediocrity in this world as it is.

 

[snagstangl]

It looks like it could be shitty, well around the rim anyway.

 

[canucklehead]

I like it! puf

 

[redglow]

"That's what makes horse races" as they say.

Would not be something that I would spend money on. But, It's definitely something unique.

 

[peregrinus]

It reminds me of a Volcano, not the standard pipe shape, but a real volcano, a volcanic eruption.
It certainly is an attention grabber.
Who made this?

 

[cshubhra]

This reminds me of the story ... Emperor’s new clothes.

I will be the one who says ... Look the emperor has no clothes

In other words ... it is UGLY

 

[litup]

I think it’s hideous. ?

 

[warren]

That's the beauty of it. Some here are not his target demographic, it's not intended for them. It's intriguing but, it wouldn't catch my eye in a pipe shop.

 

[oldtoby]

I try to keep an open mind about some things, but damn.... ?

 

[weezell]

UUUMMMMmmmmmm........NO, not for me...?

 

[SpookedPiper]

I can appreciate the Carver's artistic eye but it's not for me.

 

[rogers]

A pipe with an umbrella for your thumb. That's what they were thinking. puf

 

[PutteringPiper]

This is someone's dream pipe.

 

[trubka2]

It's like a geyser or a mushroom cloud erupting from an egg. I kind of dig it, but I wouldn't smoke it because it weighs 2.2 oz., and I wouldn't buy it because it costs $345 I don't have. We should take bets on how long it lasts on SPC. My money's on four days.
