New product: Mastro Geppetto Rusticated Cherrywood, Estate Briar Pipe Unsmoked Mastro Geppetto pipes are made by the Italian workshop brand Ser Jacopo. One could call them Ser Jacopo’s series of ‘affordable’ pipes, and while this would be correct purely from the standpoint of price, it wouldn’t be entirely fair to them in other regards. Geppetto pipes are hand made from the same high-grade briar as Ser Jacopo pipes, but the former do not use the plateau cuts that the latter does, which are more expensive; Geppetto pipes also tend to be simpler shapes, meaning they do not require the use of the highly-technical flexible drilling machinery that Ser Jacopo’s wilder shapes do. One thing I really like about Ser Jacopo’s Geppetto pipes is the wider variety of finishes they explore. For example, while I’ve categorized this Geppetto as a “rusticated” pipe, that doesn’t really do it justice. That’s not to say that rusticated pipes aren’t nice, but this one is arguably a “figural” design, given that it has been carved to resemble tree bark. Given that the pipe’s shape is that of a cherrywood – i.e., a forward-leaning sitter cut to resemble the trunk of a cherry tree, along with the old French pipes that were made from these trunks – I presume the matching of these two design elements was deliberate. In any case, it’s a great looking pipe, with some extra flair added by a cumberland-style lucite stem. This Geppetto is also completely unsmoked, having come to us via our trade-in program.

New product: Moonlight Pipes Bent Volcano Handmade Briar Pipe, New While some pipe-makers take inspiration from the natural world, or from the technologies of present and past, few of them in the contemporary seek to represent these forms in their work. Czech artisan Ondrej Bárta of Moonlight pipes does just that, in a way that recalls the intricate, figural carvings of briar pipes from the turn of the 20th century. But Ondrej also departs from the figural approach of early briar pipes by combining it with high-grade materials and a careful attention to grain patterns that is far more modern. Of all of the various design elements that are constantly being innovated or updated in pipe-making, one that has received far less attention than others is texture. Many pipe-makers pride themselves on improvements made to smooth and sandblasted finishing techniques, but far fewer explore new approaches to other finishes, such as rustication styles. This pipe from Ondrej’s Moonlight make has its own ideas regarding the broad latter category. It is a partially smooth finished volcano shape with an under-slung shank, but the shank and the base of the bowl are hand-carved with a sinewy patterning reminiscent of the fibers of tree bark. Comparisons may be drawn to Paul Larrysson Hubbart’s tree trunk pokers, though while Larrysson tended towards species such as the English oak for inspiration, Ondrej appears to have chosen something like a corkscrew willow or a coastal tea tree. The smooth areas of the bowl are beautiful too, though, being covered in bird’s-eye briar patterns and a brown-sugar stain. The design is completed by a tasteful green ebonite stem and a cap at the base of the shank for easy cleaning.

The production process of Sapele Veneer Fitch before slicing determines the texture and quality of the veneer. The generous production process includes the selection of wood, cutting angle and knife selection. Selecting high-quality wood is key, as the grain, density, and color of the wood will all affect the quality of the final veneer. The choice of cutting angle and cutter directly affects the texture and appearance of the wood veneer. For example, different cutting angles can produce different texture effects, and choosing the right cutter can ensure that the surface of the wood is smooth and the texture is clear during the cutting process. Overall, a careful crafting process ensures that the veneer is of premium texture and quality.

During the foaming process, the sponge generates a significant amount of heat due to the chemical reactions involved. Therefore, sponge foam typically requires a cooling period of 3 to 5 days. This cooling process is not only to bring the sponge to room temperature, but also to allow the foam structure to fully stabilize, ensuring the sponge’s elasticity, hardness, and density remain consistent. Using the sponge before it has completely cooled may affect its physical properties and shorten its lifespan. #foam #sponge #furniture #mattress #pillow #tdi

New product: Ben Wade Danish Hand Model 100 Freehand Estate Briar Pipe, Danish Estates While Ben Wade was a historic British pipe brand, for a time during the 1970s, production of Ben Wade pipes was contracted out to one of Danish pipe-making’s superstars: Preben Holm. Though he would tragically pass away at the age of 42, Holm was one of the pioneering figures in the ‘Danish design’ movement in 20th century pipe-making, a movement that still dominates the high-grade pipe scene. By hand-shaping his pipes on a belt sander, Holm was able to make the most of the patterns of grain hidden within briar, creating spectacular works of pipe art that looked just as good as they smoked. Owing to Holm’s untimely passing, his pipes are even more highly sought after than they were during his lifetime. The Preben Holm workshop was nothing if not versatile. Some pipes were quite traditional in style (the Traditional models, for example); others were more organically-inspired compositions (such as many of the Prominence and Designer models). This particular pipe from Holm’s workshop is, however, expressive of an aesthetic that is quintessential for the Danish freehand pipe. It is bold, sharp, and almost aggressive in its shaping, yielding a thoroughly assertive design. It also wears a deep, ring grain sandblast that further adds to its rugged profile. The condition is good. The pipe was clearly a faithful companion to its previous owner, resulting in a build-up of inner rim darkening. On the other hand, it is a pipe that is aesthetically and functionally rough-and-ready, so I wouldn’t worry about this too much.
