Flávia Rodrigues: Sandblasted Billiard with Mammoth Tobacco Pipe

A handsome, no-nonsense Billiard shape, this long-shanked example boasts a little less firmness than the other pieces in Flavia's premier batch of briars. This could be a result of the handsomely texture sandblast however, the likes of which served to unveil a seriously awesome display of stacked ring grain climbing all flanks of the bowl. The carver opted for a warm, reddish-brown stain, which acts as a gorgeous complement to the creamy mammoth accent and periwinkle blue vulcanite stem at play as well. The tenon is lined with surgical stainless steel, and the whole of it is certain to be a welcomed addition to your collection.
