Mark Tinsky: Mocha Bent Pot (Three Star) (4) Tobacco Pipe

Mark Tinsky has quite the storied history in American pipe making, founding the American Smoking Pipe Co. in 1978 and maintaining a consistent output for the over four decades that have elapsed since then. Tinsky lives in Montana and spends his days fly fishing and making pipes, bringing his many years of experience in the craft to every shape he fashions. He boasts a rather diverse portfolio, offering a wide range of shapes in a variety of unique finishes. Tinsky is also well known for his accenting work, incorporating everything from hardwoods to metals into his compositions. A fine showcase of Tinsky's style, this bent Pot sees a stout, thick-walled bowl standing at the fore of a sinuous shank-and-stem arrangement. It's presented in the grain-defining Mocha smooth finish.
