Hi there! A friend of mine has a well used pipe, and well smoking too! But since its made of rosewood, wich of I am unsure about (toxicity etc..) I thought it was a good time to ask here! Is rosewood dangerous? And is there specific "species" of rosewood wich NOT might be dangerous? (like ...

If i only knew that leather dye translated into Narvsvärta before i purchased this oil-ba...
