Pipe Tristan Ammonite Rusticated Poker Sitter Handmade Briar Pipe, New

Description: Pipe Tristan Ammonite Rusticated Poker Sitter Handmade Briar Pipe, New Pipe Tristan Ammonite Rusticated Poker Sitter Handmade Briar Pipe, New Pipe Tristan is the name used by French artisan Tristan Lefebvre. Lefebvre is part of a new wave of up-and-coming hand made pipe carvers from the birthplace of briar, following in the footsteps of figures such as Alain Albuisson, Paul Lanier, and Pierre Morel Sr and Jr. Lefebvre credits a wide range of influences upon his pipe-making, such as modern greats from Italy and Denmark, such as Carlo Scottis Castello and Tom Eltang, as well as more unique sources of inspiration, such as the centuries-old hunting pipes native to Germanys southern Bavarian region. As such, Tristan is equally at home crafting his own spin on the 55, the hawbill, or the Danish Dublin as he is reviving the Ulmer Kloben when he isnt inventing his own shapes, that is. The poker is a pipe shape whose popularity seems to come in waves, sometimes moving to the forefront of smokers interests, and other times receding into the background amidst the emergence of other more novel, modernist designs. Yet, like the cutty and the billiard, it never truly goes away, and for good reason: it is eminently functionalist, which is why, for example, it is a staple within Tom Eltangs output. In other words, so long as the internals are sound, itll never let you down. Having handled dozens of Lefebvres pipes at this point, my faith in his engineering is unwavering. From the drilling of the draft hole, to the cut of the stem, to ensuring that the proportions are balanced in a way that allows the pipe to be a sitter (or setter) without assistance, it is dead-on. It is not only high-end in its functional properties, however. It is also nice to handle and to look at. Regarding the latter, the pipe is dressed in Tristans signature Ammonite rustication, which is inspired by fossils of prehistoric marine life, and its sandy stain is complemented by a hand cut cumberland stem.
