Whoa!

You definitely get points for originality. I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like it. Beautiful finish. Something tells me that would be a bugger to smoke and hold. Still very nicely done! I especially like how you incorporated the grain and how sharp the edges are. The stand is excellent. Very very good.

Are you going to make the other suits as well? That would be cool.

i doubt... the pipe was made for a friend that is crazy for poker playing... if you would ask me, i would probably not make it becuase it is kind of strange - looking good only on stand.. so, not my type of pipe to much :P :P :P... but he is a friend so i made it for him...

Another really cool design very well executed. It's not going to be for everyone but I really like and enjoy the artsy sculpture-esque pipes. The only critique I have is that the base doesn't appear to be entirely flush on the bottom in a couple of pics. (And for christsake sand out your tobacco chambers.) :lol:

Cool beans, cool beans. One of a kind for sure and really well executed.
