Unknown Rusticated Hawkbill Estate Briar Pipe, Other Estates

Description

Regretfully, I do not know who made this pipe. It’s beautifully cut (hawkbills are notoriously a pain in the behind to shape and to drill) and the rusticated finish is nicely consistent, reminiscent of the Peterson house style. Perhaps it came from a master that I—in a lapse that brings shame upon my bloodline—simply do not know of yet. In which case, my loss is your gain.

The condition is very good. Minor inner rim darkening and finish fading.
