Pipe 11522. Blowfish.

[Odissey]

Good day everyone!
Work on pipes with a fossil mammoth is going pretty hard. There was not a single free minute today for the whole day. Free time appeared only in the evening, when I stopped work on the pipes. Today I promised to show you two more new pipes.
The first smoking pipe will be the new "Blowfish". It has similarities with the previous "Blowfish". But the new pipe also has major changes. I am very pleased with this work and consider this blowfish one of my most beautiful pipes. This pipe could have been a masterpiece, but it didn't. With all the charm of the briar from which this pipe is made (excellent grain, there is not a single sendpit), it was the briar that prevented this pipe from becoming a masterpiece. This briar is absolutely impossible to dye. I certainly managed to do it, but things could be much better, especially on the surfaces of this bird's eye pipe.

Length - 135.3 mm;
Weight - 62.5 grams;
Bowl diameter - 39.1mm;
Tobacco chamber - 34.1 x 19.8 mm;
Bite - 3.4 x 14.8 mm.
Briar, ebonite.

Kind regards,
Andrey

Dayum, like a chiseled marble angel.

I can't place the second pipe yet. The site where I post my photos to post on the forum is not responding and seems to have disappeared from the internet for a while.

There are so many shapes to account for and still have them harmonize with each other. To keep everything in balance can’t be taught. Beautiful work. I hope to have this pipe some day.
