I've made a number of morta pipes recently, but this was the first sandblasted one I've done:
Also includes nickel silver and mammoth ivory. And a hell of a lot of work. The mammoth ivory has a few hairline dark marks in it that look like cracks, but are solid through and through, almost like some artifact of partial fossilization. Not sure what to make of those.
And I've got to say, I think I prefer the sandblasted morta to the smooth - though I prefer sandblasted pipes anyway.
