Patina Bent Dublin (10) Tobacco Pipe

This bent Dublin is one of Randy Wiley's more complex designs, and, as is typically the case in Wiley briars of this style, that complexity is actually rendered using only a few lines. Long, sweeping, winding lines, but only a few nonetheless. In this case, two; one which rises smoothly up the bowl, defines the rim, then swoops back down again to the same point where it started, and a second that swoops along the shank and up the right flank.
