First Commission Arrived

[CoffeeAndBourbon]

My wife saw a YouTube video with the owner/carver of Frassati pipes and she asked me if I had one of his ppes. I said, no I didn't and she said to ask if he could do a commission.

Well, 6 moths later and several emails (very easy process) I got the following in my mail. It smokes great!

If memory serves, you don't cut a bad pipe yourself. Are we to take from this that the wife prefers the handiwork of Señor Frassati, than your own?
Regardless of the slight, that's a nice looking pipe, well done the wife!

Nothing like a commissioned pipe!!

I love that stem!

That was the one think I really wanted was a cumberland-esque stem that was not too bright. I have seen some that practically glowed...

I think he nailed it. It is light but contrasts nicely with the stain without standing out too much.
