Well, here is the other end of the spectrum. This is a huge pipe. I came into this one in a box lot in 2016. I emailed Tim West about it and he said he doesn’t make many twist shank pipes and made this one in 1998. He added that these were made when he was bored and needed a challenge. The acrylic stem lines up perfectly. There are two abstract flowers carved on the left side. The pipe is a work of art but...... the chamber is 1-1/16” diameter and 1-3/4” deep. Yep, that’s either an all day smoke or a week of DTG. The previous owner smoked a couple bowls in it but the bottom is still uncharred. No chatter on the bit but there is a small small nick on the corner of the rim. Zippo shown for comparison and not included in the sale but it comes in a nice pipe sock and with a leather stand both made proportional to the pipe.
$180 shipped in the US. Reasonable offers considered.

Maxed out on the pipe budget this month, but I'll be thinking about it - so this is a nibble but I often bite. You may well hear from me next month,
Forget the past for it no more holds sway;
