You know. One of those...things. :P
But is it one of those things we want or one of those things we make fun of in PM?
I have weird taste so it could go either way

I guess I can post a screenshot since I don't have it in hand or have a downloadable picture. I've only heard an interview with him on the pipes magazine podcast and interactions via messages but it seems like he's a good fella. Absolutely no ego or BS, probably only makes about 25 pipes per year. When I first stumbled across his ig account and did the follow / liking of pictures he actually took the time to say hello, thanks, etc and that doesn't happen too often. Anyway, enough rambling. Nicely blasted tomato with a simple faux ivory accent, I was really surprised it came back from Chicago with him

Great looking pipe
Need to check that artisan out

P.S. I checked out his site
All sold out
I believe this may be a shape he really likes
