Nørding: Erik The Red Partially Rusticated Billiard Tobacco Pipe

A classically inclined Billiard from Erik Nording, this piece is quite different from his more readily recognizable Fancy Freehand work, pairing a tall bowl to a trim shank and a stylized stretch of expansion ring-fitted stem. As a part of his Erik the Red series, which features timeless shapes at an attractive price point, this pipe is dressed in a deep, warm stain that reveals some handsome grain, with a bit of rustication present on the heel and transition. Sure to be a favored workhorse or everyday smoker, this pipe combines the classic with the contemporary in a handsome, handy package.
