Ashton: Sovereign Poker (XXX) Tobacco Pipe

A classic shape from Ashton of England, this Poker is a part of their esteemed Sovereign line, showcasing a honeyed blonde finish across the stummel, bringing out the briar's cross grain patterning through seas of soft birdseye on either flank and striations of horizontal grain through the shank and rim. The stem is a length of swirling red and black tapered acrylic, meeting the muscular shank which extends from the lower portion of the proud, cylindrical bowl. The underside of the bowl is flat, allowing for easy sitting, and the curvature that the shape necessitates softens the silhouette of the front half, contrasting the firm ridges on the rim and underside. Presented in the XXX size group, this Poker is a solid pipe, a straightforward pipe, a piece that is as sure to dazzle with its looks as it is to be a potent desk pipe.
