Hi
i like Morta very much but i never have such material in my hands, so i cant say anything about the finish. Maybe these pipe have to be buffed with carnauba a little more, i don't know for sure.
About construction, there are few items i would like to point:
1. on the first pipe the bowl - shank junction should be a little more clear and the bowl shape should be more clear too.
2. for me, the second pipe is best of the 3. I am not sure but on this picture it seems that the mortise is drilled upper than the center line
3. For the third one i can't see much looking from this angle. The only thing is that the front of the bowl (this part towards the shank) maybe should be oval not flat.
Hope this helps :D
Best
George
