Eclesias Pipes High Contrast Smooth Billiard Sitter Handmade Briar Pipe, New

Description

Pavel Holub’s portfolio is largely comprised of sandblast finishes (including his signature “Dragon Scale” sandblast), but, on rare occasions, he opts for a smooth finish, so long as the briar suits it. In this instance, it’s clear to see why Holub chose to spare his briar from the blasting cabinet. A compact, though still quite stout, sitter billiard, the bird’s-eye flanking the bowl on this Eclesias is quite gorgeous, as is the tiger stripe cross-grain that can be seen connecting it. A high contrast finish has been used to accentuate the briar’s patterning even further, with a hand cut cumberland stem adding to the pipe’s all round fiery aesthetic.
