Michael Parks Smooth Dublin (V) Tobacco Pipe

Michael Parks is a Canadian artisan known for his modern takes on shape-chart classics, drawing on his background in the arts to add beauty in form to superbly engineered smoking pieces. This Dublin is a fine example of his work, lithe of form yet still substantial in presence. Two inches wide and almost three inches tall, the bowl promises to fill the palm with ease, and it houses a Stack-like chamber capable of accommodating enough tobacco for a lengthy smoking session. With its elongated shank and brief stem, the pipe could almost be a Liverpool — and a lengthy one at that — if not for the bowl's signature Dublin flare. Said flare is reserved and elegant, with the stummel's chocolate smooth stain highlighting dense flame grain throughout and keeping things classic and classy.
