Tampers & Tools: Glotov Fish Electroplated Brass Tamper with Case

At first glance, you'd be hard-pressed to discern how this tamper from Alexander Glotov were anything other than an eye-catching key chain — let alone a handy pipe tool. On the outside, the piece is ornately styled to resemble the skeleton of some prehistoric fish. Thanks to the Russian artisan's talented craftsmanship, though, the tamper itself is unassumingly housed within the fish's rib cage, easily accessed by flipping the lever that comprises the tail's bottom fin. It's beautiful work from Glotov, made from electroplated brass for a bright aesthetic that's quite durable and weather resistant, making it perfect for slipping on a key ring for everyday carrying.
