Smooth Horn (Three Snail) Tobacco Pipe

This brilliant Three Snail horn, from Japanese master Hiroyuki Tokutomi, is imbued with a delightful sense of the future and forward momentum. Most every aspect of the principle shape, from the cupping at the rear of the rim, to the sleek, subtle completion of the sine-wave arc of the shank and bit moves the spirit to far flung, unexplored realms. The use of plateau at the fore of the pipe is inspired. It leaves this describer with the distinct impression that the pipe is on the event horizon of a new dimension. Great stuff.
