Extra Classic Partially Rusticated Tomato (3) Tobacco Pipe

A pioneer of the Danish Fancy Freehand movement, Erik Nørding has been fashioning pipes since the 1960s, and his decades of experience are evident in every piece he crafts. Nørding's shaping style could accurately be described as organic and whimsical, though he fashions more subdued, streamlined designs as well. The Extra series offers a diverse array of shapes that are all united by vibrant accents, whether in the form of exotic wood, colorful stems, or some combination of the two. Each piece in the series is handmade and graded on a descending scale from 3 to 1. Presented here is a handsome Tomato in a partial rustication, stamped "3" out of a possible 3.
