This is my first pipe 100% made by myself in my workshop. Very unusual shape inspired by a pipe by OldschoolPipes on Instagram. The shape and possibilities has been on my mind for years and when I finally got started making pipes I just had to give it a try.
I know some flaws/improvements, but I’ll keep them to myself for a while to see what you guys find [emoji6]
Sorry about the photos making the pipe blend in to to busy background.

Ambitious for a first pipe. I like the finish you've achieved, but am not a fan of the shape personally. Stem work is nice. I would suggest, (like many on this site will) to try your hand at a Billiard.

It’s a unique shape, for sure [emoji846]
I’ll do some billiards and more classic shapes in the near future.
Thank you for the feedback [emoji106]

Agree with UnderShade.
Technically well done, but the shape does nothing for me, nor does the whole “reverse Calabash” concept.
I liked the more conventional Dublin-ish/Rhodesian-ish pipe that you published with this one on FB.
