#B2318 Vieille Bruyere Petite Blasted Apple – French made.
COMMISSIONED #B2317 Chap Ecume – Meerschaum Lined Horn Stem Billiard – This French made of St. Claude, has some shank challenges, but the fact that it’s Meerschaum lined makes this restoration very much worth it. I like the horn stem – adds a rustic feel.
#B2307 Sport Bullmoose – A Bullmoose is a squat Rhodesian with a very heavy 1/4 bent stem, according to Bill Burney’s Pipe Shapes Chart. This is a great example with a hefty presence in the palm.

#B2252 Royal Danish # 901 MADE IN DENMARK Freehand – This is a more diminutive Freehand and well loved, but with a challenge: a crack runs over the right plateau to the bowl.
