This implies that the pipe is a piece of art.

All I see is a poor design that someone is trying to fob off as stylish by giving it a high price.
It reminds me of this song:

Nice pipe content too...

Someone at Joe's was supposed to list that on April 1st. It's just a few weeks early is all. Simple mistake.
Eating and drinking and merry making with a pipe in my hand. I probably should of been born a Hobbit.

When I look at this piece I see that part of me that might stubbornly smoke a bad pipe designed to drip tobacco juice under my tongue.

What do you see?
I see an "artist" who mistook constipation for inspiration and put the result on the market anyway.
