Ashton: Brindle Dublin (LX) Tobacco Pipe

Ashton is known for their classic English shaping, stylish sandblasts, and brindled vulcanite stems, all of which are evident when viewing this Dublin. This LX-sized piece pairs a tall, muscular bowl with a flared rim to an arrow-straight shank-and-stem arrangement. The sleek, elegant lines of the shank and stem lend the bowl most of the composition's visual weight, while also keeping the pipe streamlined and tidy in profile. The dark, craggy Brindle sandblast dresses the stummel and brings vivid definition to the briar. Topped by a stem of green and red hues, this piece offers plenty of visual and tactile appeal as well as a comfortable in-hand presence.
