About This Pipe

One doesn't see a ton of this shape from Hiroyuki Tokutomi but, when he does one, they are unlike anything else. The bowl is a superbly shaped ball, with just enough reduction at the heel to give the body a hint of acorn. The body has a smart, subtle forward cant, and is balanced to perfection by a wide, flaring oval shank with tear drop mount. Very cool, indeed.
