That was a joke. I really don't know what to call this pipe, but it's color and flair remind me of something Persian.

I'll come clean and admit that this isn't the pipe I set out to make. This is a mix of two pipes I had in mind when I started making it. The pipe I "intended" to make was a super bulbous bent. The other that was apparently still in my mind was a Rhodesian that I had designed in photoshop that had a tilted and asymmetrical top. I really didn't plan on making the second one when I started, but it took over, so I went with it.

Once again, I had to hand carve the ring (I should quit making bulldog varieties on my lathe where I have to hand carve the rings :shock: )

The stem is also hand carved with an extension made of some wood of which I don't remember the name.

Anyway, if you're interested, pm me.

That's pretty cool man! I like it. I think I'm gonna take some time off trying the billiard shape and do something like this. I enjoy bent pipes better anyway. Good job my friend!
