Pietenpauw billiard (named Jerobaum) finally arrived. Roughly 1 month to ship from S. Africa - not bad. Great carver with a dry sense of humor and impressive customer service.. Pics of this pipe on his website are way better, but thought this one emphasized the awesome Cumberland stem... Uncarbonized bowl and Tamarind 'adornment'/extension are washed out by my flash and look much better in person... Sweet blast with a smooth rim. Trying to perfect my photo sizing/scaling as I know I've slipped a few 15 MB whopper photos/posts in this thread by accident/ignorance.. Better shots when the weather improves (30F here in the "D" today).

Last few pipes from @Ponycarman, @showard, and @Price are slick..

Beautiful pipe!

2014 J.Alan, in great shape and super light (28g). And a steal. I'll find out how she smokes next month, but I have high expectations.

Congratulating yourself now, huh? Next thing you know, you'll be referring to yourself in the third person

I see you're not into the whole "brevity" thing.

Peterson Newgrange 69, nice grain, silver spigot, Cumberland stem. Also a couple tins. Tobaccopipes had 15% off Peterson pipes on Monday, I couldn't resist.

Got my CI order today. I recently bought "Darkest Hour," and I couldn't imagine watching it without a big cigar, so I went shopping.

Been watching this guy on IG. He puts out some first class work.
I just picked up one of his entry level "baby dragons". It came with a personalized "Dragon pipes" greeting card, pipe cleaners and a sample all for a very reasonable price.
Check him out!

The markup on it is rather high, but I guess that's what happens when you can't buy it outside of Japan. It also took like a month to get here, and was marked as "shredded tobacco" on the customs form... so I'm amazed I even got it.
