those are nice pieces..like the bamboo as well! A good deal for the price & generally good customer service , we could learn from Chinese marketing & internet retail in the West. But some are plastic with metal inner bowls quite sophisticated engineering in ways but mass production keeps the price down, but you can get hardwood & briar at fair prices. Here is the link. To some bamboo style Chinese pipes on Ali express the Chinese equivalent of Amazon& EBay , it is a better designed website than Amazon & EBay in ways , the Chinese are leaping forward in technology by leaps & bound even in their ambitious space program , as an engineer & associate of IEEE & IET, I whittle wood , most high tech jobs go to immigrant con men, but I am beyond caring about business mal practice around the world. Some people collect old or New briars , I have my favourite British & International briars ,& collect a variety of International pipes online. I have been ripped off on estates on eBay once too often , so do not bother with overpriced burnt out pipes. I try & turn to whittling some pipes & tampers , and have just ordered a decent carving knife set,but early days. I hope my friends & all have a happy weekend & enjoy good health , God bless for now xXx

Good day, two of my new Chinese bamboo style pipes came in the Royal Mail this morning, Western culture versus Eastern culture. They exude a oriental quality at a budget price, bye all.
