Misc. Estates: Key Carlén Smooth Lovat (1973) Tobacco Pipe

This Lovat from Key Carlén is a sleek, lightweight interpretation of the classic form, with a comfortable in-hand presence and a capacious tobacco chamber. A wide transition sees the start of a lean, protracted shank that keeps the aft visually reserved, its considerable length punctuated by an abbreviated saddle stem. Up front, a towering, Stack-like bowl stands atop a wide heel and grows trim walls that taper ever-so-slightly to a flat rim. A dark, smoky stain completes the ensemble and highlights healthy grain throughout the stummel.
