First is a Comoy's second, the Exmoor pipe in Shape 283. Next is a Castello in Old Antiquari (Wonderful Blast)! |

I collect Comoy's pipes, and your example is one I've never seen. Beautiful find, my envy and congratulations.

Yo herb - most bodacious!

While the shape is common, it's the tiny details that intrigue me on this pipe. |
