American Estates: Schoenleber Straight Grain Pot Tobacco Pipe

This Pot from Schoenleber combines the form's compact figure with the elongated proportions of a Canadian, making for a distinctive take on a classic profile. The bowl's figure fits snugly in the hand, formed by thick walls rising straight from the rounded heel toward the flat rim. A protracted oval shank reaches far to meet an abbreviated tapered stem out back, the arrangement adding considerable length to the composition while maintaining a lightweight build overall. Dressing the stummel is a warm hazelnut stain that highlights swathes of vertical grain around the bowl.
