Nicely done Abi! The way the grain of the briar and olivewood looks so integral is exquisite. Definitely staying true to your own style ;) Kudos :thumbsup:

Hi Abi,

great work once again :thumbsup: ! Had to take a second look to like it, but now, the longer I look at it, the more I like it. Are filter pipes as popular in Montenegro as they are in Germany, or did you do that on customers request?

Regards, Jens

I agree with Jens. Except that I had not to take a second look. Your pipes are so distinctive and unique, they're typical at first sight. Just grand!

Cheerio!

Comrades ,
I always enjoy your comments and constructive criticism :wink: !

Jens ,
yes' i like to implement details in a shape that can evolve in time together with the observer .
The 9mm filters made by Vauen is of course a standard nowadays as in Germany also in Montenegro,Greece,Italy and other neighboring countries ,it is more of a choice but a very popular one .

You are right ,the filter inlay on this pipe was a customers request , pipe dealing stores are also requesting from me to implement a 9mm filter into the pipes as often as possible .
Of course there is sometimes more room to express some long shank shapes without the filter,but the client is king and it's fine with me!

Best,
Abi
