Yeti Pipe #19 and #20- Peregrin and Meriadoc

Post by The Smoking Yeti »

A customer commissioned twins for him and his friend. I beseeched his better nature, and he agreed I could at least do two different accent rings. :D

Yes, I know there is a bit of stain in the bowl, yes, I did sand it AFTER the pictures.

What shape is this? cutty?

Cheers!

Very nice contrast stain. They have a belge kinda feel to them, but I think cutty would be an accurate description. Nice work on these!

well I suppose if one were to smoke to excess it would be a sin

"but what would be smoking to excess?"

Why smoking two pipes at once of course

Both are very pretty. How long are those stems? Did you cut them yourself from scratch?

Total Pipe length is 11.5" so the stems are probably around 9.5"- cut by hand, from Cumberland rod stock.
