Patina Smooth Freehand Tobacco Pipe

Aside perhaps from the acrylic stem, there's hardly an inch on this freehand briar that could be rightly considered conventional. From wildly undulating plateau on the underside, to a snub of a shank which transitions seamlessly into. the rim? Can that be right? Well, right or wrong, unrestrained sculptural design, or essence of the post-apocalyptic mutant captured in briar, this unusual creation by Randy Wiley certainly knows how to draw a curious glance, and inspire speculative conjecture.
