Lightweight Billiard Tobacco Pipe

Liverpool pipe shapes come in all sizes and shapes and finishes and stems. So, crafting an original piece requires some extra ingenuity . I opted for a rusticated finish with smooth spots revealing the interesting grain underneath. I added a fordite ferrule at the transition. The mouthpiece is shortened because of a longer shank and is hand cut from some red amber Italian acrylic. Thinner bowl walls help keep the pipe lighter in weight. I think everyone should have at least one pipe with thinner walls to help them smoke more slowly. Think sipping for this one. Not only will one enjoy the flavor of the tobacco more satisfying but will actually improve the cadence required for a nice slow smoking experience. This Liverpool pipe is simply an elegant little pipe meant to be enjoyed by the pipe smoker afficaindo!
