Roberto Perez "Tierra Alta" Vintage Cherry Red Bakelite Custom Tobacco Pipe For Sale

   This is a new tobacco pipe made from a bit of vintage  cherry red bakelite...repurposed from a 1960s cake knife. 

   Edgy and bold, the mid century atomic design of the pipe body contrasts nicely with the live-edge African rosewood driftwood bowl.  A vintage, NOS vulcanite mouthpiece pulls everything together for a sleek finish. See the photos for a "Before" image of the amazing piece of aged hardwood that prompted the making of this pipe.  A fortunate beach find for certain.

   It may sound silly, but I think this pipe turned out looking really sexy.  Lots of lines, lots of textures...this smoking tool seems like it wants to be moving. It definitely wants to be smoked.

   Thanks for looking...
