Manuel Shaabi Carved Hawkbill Sitter with Silver Estate Pipe

German pipemaker, Manuel Shaabi has been carving and hand crafting pipes for well over two decades and his uniquely styled work is highly prized among collectors all over the world.  We were very excited to get our hands on this singularly carved hawkbill sitter estate pipe.  Collared with a silver band and given a flowing variation on the shape, this sturdy sitter has a magnificent relief carved surface adding to the organic feel of Manuel's work.  So organic that if you stare at the pipe long enough you would swear you can see it breathing.  There is a whisper of rim darkening, but this large puffer is still in excellent condition with a fine draw and comes with its original sleeve.  And before you ask, yes!  It passes a cleaner with ease.
