American Estates: Max Capps Sandblasted Apple Tobacco Pipe

This Apple from Max Capps pairs a bulbous bowl to an arrow-straight shank-and-stem arrangement. Though sturdily constructed, the design maintains a lightweight in-hand presence, with the rounded bowl perfectly shaped for wrapping fingers. The stummel wears a dark, smoky sandblast that accentuates the natural grain orientation of the briar and provides a rugged texture for the fingers to enjoy. A tapered stem of cumberland tops off the design, its color complementing the hues of the stummel for a consistent color palette.
