Askwith: Sandblasted Billiard with Mammoth Tobacco Pipe

Product Number: 002-499-0512

When Chris Askwith accents a pipe, he typically does so with color rather than a separate material. He occasionally will embellish pipes with bamboo, horn, or silver, but generally, the English artisan prefers colorful stems when it comes to adding a pop of color or flash to his handmade pieces. Such convention makes this mammoth-accented Billiard all the rare — not only does Askwith rarely use alternative materials for an accent, but mammoth is even rarer within that category. He's let the stunning material take center stage in the composition, too, fitting the sandblasted stummel to a traditional black stem. The mammoth's arresting golden tones and visual texture offer a handsome complement agains the red-tinged sandblast, and the shaping aligns perfectly with the Billiard archetype, displaying balanced proportions and a timeless style.
