Ashton: Brindle Bulldog (XXX) Tobacco Pipe

This squat Bulldog by Ashton is a muscular rendition of the classic shape, showing off one of Jimmy Craig's signature hand-cut stems. The bowl displays traditional English shaping cues in its tapered rim and slim beadlines, with scalloped sections near the heel allowing the pipe to rest comfortably on its side without any troublesome flying embers during a smoke. A long tapered stem finishes the ensemble, joined to the pipe's diamond-shaped shank and rendered in swirling green and yellow vulcanite, adding an attractive burst of color. Dressed in Ashton's Brindle finish, the ruby stained sandblast reveals a wealth of texture for the fingers to explore.
