Well I obviously haven’t finished smoking the oldest Calabash I posted earlier but will finish it and this, the newest Calabash I own. Where the original was made in the classic guise of a Calabash this one takes it to heights nobody, except messers Danovic and Altinok have collaborated to bring it to life. The business end, or Meerschaum cup, was made by Pipemaker Sinan Altinok who intricately carved the beautiful pattern it sports. Davorin Denovic was responsible for the gourd end, which he made from very Black Morta, around 10,000 y/o, the accent is a brass band followed by some faux Amber and the stem is a modern Smoky Amber reproduction. Keeping it smokey with more of the 2002 Virginia no. 1 from Mac Baren. banjo

Are you sure that's not someone's leg? It's ginormous.
It's a fine pipe though.

Now that’s the way a Calabash should look. IMHO

That is one fine calabash. Mine is sad in comparison...but I'm making her happy by smoking her.

That's intense.
I can't believe it's clenchable.

That thing is insane! Does it generate its own gravitational pull? Seriously though, that's a beautiful pipe.

I'm usually into "traditional" in most things, but that is the finest calabash I think I have ever laid eyes upon.
When it comes time to sell, you know where to find me.
Your collection never ceases to impress!
