Sandblasted Egg with Cocobolo Tobacco Pipe

This is most certainly a charming little number from Pete Prevost. And though rather small in stature, it's elegantly profiled and exotically accented, rendering the piece far from modest. Here I'm particularly enamored with the sliver of delicate cocobolo Pete's used to ferrule the shank terminus, and the way its hue and grain pattern play off the deep auburn blasted finish of the briar. This will make for one extraordinarily good looking carry-around pipe.
