Dave Neeb Smooth Bamoo Egg Handmade Briar Pipe, New
Out of stock
Description
Dave Neeb spent the first part of his life as an attorney. Upon retiring, however, he turned his hand to an altogether different vocation: pipes. First, Neeb was a pipe seller; he then learned the art of pipe restoration; finally, under the tutelage of Lee Von Erck and Rad Davis, he took up making artisan pipes himself. This continued for many years, with Neeb’s restoration of high-grade pipes being practiced side by side with the crafting of his own – pipes that deservedly amassed a cult following. Eventually, Neeb retired from pipe restoration and sales, but his pipe-making endeavors are, to the relief of many a smoker, not over yet.
This is the latest of Dave’s own pipes to have arrived at MBSD, and it’s a real looker. I’m actually a little reminded of the Tsuge Ikebana bamboo pipes, as this one combines a slim, three-knuckle bamboo shank with a distinctly round, egg-shaped bowl, and because the bowl is alive with the most beautiful flame grain. As with many of Dave’s pipes, the rim is sloped, which fits in really well with the overall organic quality of the pipe.
