PIPA CROCI - Sabbiata Freehand

Measuring 7.9" (200.66 mm.) in length and 2.2" (55.88 mm.) in width, this Pipa Croci is quite long and has a considerable width. Being known for their adventuresome designs, this Pipa Croci has a kind of flattened egg shape. As you can see, it has a very nice ring grain sandblast. I purchased it from Smokingpipes.com, http://www.smokingpipes.com . Their e-mail address is sales@smokingpipes.com .

REINER BARBI

A Reiner Barbi pipe, Grade RE A, and listed as available for sale on the Novelli Pipes site. http://www.novelli.it/pipe/barbi/ - NOVELLI.PIPES@NOVELLI.IT . I know it is a worn out expression but I view this pipe as being poetry in the shape of a pipe. It is a strikingly beautiful pipe that will definitely enhance someone's collection.

STOA BRIAR PIPES - Walnut Sitter Rocker # J102204

SLR Pipes (scottlr@earthlink.net) has this graceful "pickaxe" style pipe by Todd Johnson for sale and that is where I transloaded the great photos from. The following link will take you directly to the page where the pipe is currently listed: http://home.earthlink.net/~scottlr/50up.htm . Then I captured the following description from the "Sold" section of Stoa Briar Pipes on the Lioncrest site (http://www.lioncrest.com/pag5g.html - Tom@lioncrest.com): "This is a unique Walnut Sitter Rocker # J102204 that looks great and rests well in your hand. The approximate maximum measurements of this pipe are as follows: pipe length 6 1/2 inches, bowl inside diameter 7/8 inch, bowl outside diameter 1 5/8 x 1 1/2 inches and bowl height 1 3/4 inches. The pipe pictured above was sold to a gentleman in California for $207.00 USD." I guess the gentleman in California decided this pipe wasn't for him afterall....
