Mark Tinsky: Coral Bent Bulldog (One Star) (B) 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 Bulldog boasts a stout, beadline-wrapped bowl that stands at the fore of an upturned diamond shank and a gently curved saddle stem. It's dressed in Tinsky's Coral finish, which highlights healthy grain across the stummel.
