Nørding: Double Silver Bent Dublin (3) Tobacco Pipe

This bent Dublin from Erik Nording features a broad, quite robust bowl with a crown of plateau along the rim and a firm, full-bodied presence in hand. It's wearing a partial rustication, a popular finishing style for which the Danish carver is known, with the lower half of the bowl and transition dressed in a smoky, contrast stain. This Double Silver pipe is part of a handmade line that showcases the pipe maker's talent in silversmithing, with the ornately designed metal adorning the shank end and stem base. Displaying small, intricately wrought knots and tiny dot patterns, the pipe's elegance is furthered by a jet-black, acrylic stem, matching the dark rustication.
