Nørding: Compass Metal Matte Blue Tobacco Pipe

A far cry from his bold, organic Freehands, Nording's Compass series consists of a single, utilitarian Poker shape rendered in variety of colors and finishes. This particular example is part of the metal line, and as such, it features a cylindrical bowl with a briar chamber that's wrapped in blue aluminum. Said bowl is paired to a metal shank and a slender vulcanite mouthpiece for a sleek, minimalist appearance in profile. As a Poker, this piece sits sturdily atop its flattened heel without the aid of a stand, making it perfect for those seeking a lean, reliable desk pipe.
