Nørding: Antler Partially Rusticated Bent Apple (C) Tobacco Pipe

Danish artisan Erik Nørding has been carving pipes since the 1960s, building a formidable reputation as a leader in the Danish Fancy Freehand movement, and his instantly recognizable style is characterized by organic shaping and wild finishing techniques. Nørding's Antler series features more traditional shapes dressed in rich auburn or chestnut stains in smooth and partially rusticated finishes. Each piece in the series is accented with a trim band of antler in a wide array of colors, with stummels Graded from A to C, with A being the highest. The series is elegantly presented here in the form of a robust, partially rusticated, C-grade bent Apple.
