Silver Gray: Smooth Bent Dublin Tobacco Pipe

A former accountant with a decade of pipe-making experience, Silver Gray crafts meticulously engineered designs that excel in form and function. Though her portfolio is host to a litany of signature shapes, Gray often produces unique interpretations of old-school, Anglo-French classics, as evidenced by this bent Dublin design.

A deeply curvaceous, Horn-like interpretation of the classic shape, this piece boasts a consistent, gradual taper from the forward-urging bowl's plateau-crowned rim through the transition and shank. This taper lends the shape a crescent-like outline that's supported by the stummel's consistent undercurve and the saddle stem's steep bend, which continues the implied trajectory of the stummel. Said stem is made of brindled vulcanite and displays a gorgeous mixture of vibrant, kaleidoscopic hues that add a touch of modern flair to the otherwise traditional shape. Dressing this piece is a rich auburn finish that highlights exceptional flame grain across the stummel's flanks.
