Ashton: Pebble Grain Lovat with Silver (ELX) Tobacco Pipe

This hefty Lovat from Ashton is sure to make a large contribution, literally and figuratively, to any pipe collection. Exemplary of Ashton's penchant for elevating classic shapes through elegant appointments, this piece is thoroughly English in style. With a rolled heel and balanced shank-to-bowl ratio, this pipe will please fans of traditional pipe-craft in large proportions. The round shank is adorned with a broad accent band of silver at the point of transition to the saddle stem that differentiates the Lovat form from, say, a Liverpool, which has a tapered stem. Dressed in Ashton's crisp Pebble Grain sandblast, the stummel boasts excellent grain patterns that contrasts pleasantly with its smooth rim.
