I've been looking for this one for a while! Break in run with HU Makhuwa.
Here is my new Hansom pipe. I sure like it in sandblast. I chose this pipe because of its deep chamber at 1.9 inches.
It will be a Christmas gift to me, so can’t smoke it for now. My family is so thoughtful.

Here’s the Free State 902 that was seen in the before photo of the Shamrock 80. It’s all cleaned up now

Awesome work!
No. I'm passing on the Iora. I've got a trip to Vegas in a few weeks plus Christmas is almost here. They are nice though.
I’m getting more selective - the upcoming ebony 125th doesn’t interest me but the Iora is my favorite finish/blast combo - just hoping they don’t trot out some good looking Sherlock pipe before Christmas!
I'm not a fan of the ebony finish, I'm passing on that one too.
I’m with you on the Iora. I wish it came out as much as Rua. Actually, I wish the Iora got the system release as I would’ve preferred a system but I was happy for the Barley Premier System we got earlier this year.
My guess is in the next year or so we will see both an Iora and a Barley Deluxe System
Well, if we are manifesting things here, then let’s say they will also have tapered B style stems. Oh, and a meerschaum deluxe system line too.
I so want one and of course the come out a few days after I commission a new pipe and also purchase a new Castello.
Nothing ever drops that I want until I buy something else and then can’t
Get the drop I wanted as well.
Ok so after a brief hiatus for work here’s another piece in the great late ‘23 Pete PAD spree that I never finished posting…..lol
First up, another from the Rua 125th anniversary, a dandy little 20s.
I like pretty much everything about this pipe, not much more can be said. Not the best blast of the ruas I’ve seen, including my particular 9s example, but plenty interesting and the shape and size of the 20s are fantastic in my opinion.

Next up a shape 305 from the 125th anniversary line in the barley finish. I’m partial to bent billiards, apples, eggs, and brandys for the most part. I enjoy pipes that feel good in hand, and for me that’s lead me to mainly those shapes. The calabash/Dublin shapes have grown on me slowly, as I must admit I hold it a little differently, and it doesn’t nestle in my hand the way I’m used to, but as said, it is surely growing on me. These barley finish pipes are cool. I hope it continues to darken and patina with age and use!
