Pipe C4

Partially rusticated long freehand. Four panel bowl shape with three sides done in a nice smooth rustication which is finished in a very dark red. Shank and smooth side of bowl show some nice grain. I gave the top of this pipe a faceted look which goes nicely with the angular bowl shape. This pipe is fairly long at 7 1/4 inches yet not too heavy at 78 grams. Tobacco hole is 7/8 inch across and 1 3/4 inches deep. Stem is handmade from cumberland rod. Small flaw on the smooth side of the bowl toward the bottom right, just a small line, can be seen in the last picture.
