About This Pipe
One of precious few pipe artisans from Indonesia, Wandi Riyadi started smoking a pipe while working as an IT engineer but soon found himself infatuated with crafting pipes. He became a full-time pipe maker in 2013, drawing inspiration from Danish and Japanese artisans and even crafting his own tools for his workshop.
This bent Egg from Wandi Riyadi wears a smooth, shallow sandblast on the stummel that offers a variable touch throughout and does an excellent job of emphasizing the growth rings on the flanks. The bowl is canted forward for a distinct profile and backed by an upturned shank that stretches into a half-saddle stem of vulcanite. The stem bends elegantly to reach an angle roughly level with the flat rim of the bowl. It's a piece that is simple in its design but intricately executed to provide a brilliant touch and great grain.
