Andreas Bennwik Billiard with Boxwood Estate Pipe

Andreas Bennwik has been carving in Sweden for only a few years, but has done a tremendous amount of impressive work in that time, including learning at the hands of Tom Eltang.  With a considerable background in professional illustration it is no surprise that, like this marvelous boxwood adorned billiard, his shaping skills are fantastic.  Using the boxwood to extend the gentle flare of the shank with a wide ridge at the cap and a reduced flare in the round saddle for balance all point to a mastery of line and form.  Finished smooth and canted at just the right angle, this sweet spot sized chambered smoker is in extremely good condition, includes its original leather sleeve, and given its smooth draw, will smoke like a dream, especially for virginia and shag blends.
