J. Alan 1506 (2018 Make) Bent Sandblast Tomato with Ivorite Estate Pipe

Jeff Gracik, American pipemaker out of San Diego, California, is one of the leading professional handmade creators currently working on US soil.  His outstanding creations are collected all over the world and just seeing this neo-Danish bent tomato, it isn't difficult to see why.  The upstanding bowl keeps its visual weight above the middle and the delicately carved, smooth, and polished ring serves to highlight the transition to the shank which flares out to a striking band of ivorite and a cookie jar saddle to balance the thin bite mouthpiece against the sizeable bowl.  Perfectly drilled with an unbelievably smooth draw, this gorgeous sandblast and concert of texture and material is an impressive and smokeable piece of craftsmanship meant for enjoyment on and off the rack.  Note that this pipe comes with its original sleeve.
