Nørding: Partially Rusticated Poker Spigot Tobacco Pipe

A towering, forward-leaning bowl marks this Poker design from Erik Nording, its angled, flattened base helping promote that canting profile up front. Tapered in design and housing a good bit of chamber depth, it's paired with a slender shank and tapered stem that extend outward from a mid-set transition. As part of the Danish carver's Spigot line, it's affixed with shiny metal at the shank end and base of stem, allowing the pipe to be broken down at any time. In this particular rendition, silver and orange comprise the metallic colors. This piece is dressed in one of Erik's dual finishes, with a smooth, dark ruby stain juxtaposed against a dark rustication.
