Eclesias Pipes Sandblasted Bullcap w/ Boxwood Handmade Briar Pipe, New

Description

The “bullcap” squat Rhodesian is one of those classic shapes from the 20th century was all but forgotten until quite recently, though not without making its mark through iconic renditions such as those of LHS, Custom-Bilt, and other American makes. Thankfully, the 21st century’s thriving artisan community has breathed new life into the old staple, including carvers such as Pavel Holub, of Eclesias Pipes. This one is bold in form yet relatively modest in finish, not unlike early 1900s rendition, though in this instance the pipe’s crisp, obsidian sandblast and black Lucite stem are accented by the creamy hues of a boxwood mount.
