Unlike other pipes made personnaly by famous Danish artisan and owner of a World known pipe factory Erik Nording this massive freehand doesn’t have any series names or shape numbers, therefore it would be hardly possible to say for sure when exavtly the pipe was made. We can onlly assume taking into account the shape, quality of briar and vulcanite that this creature belongs to 1970-80s – a great period in the pipe making history!

The pipe marking is “HANDMADE \ BY \ ERIK NORDING”. The length is 17.0 cm (6.69″), bowl’s height is 6.9 cm (2.72″). External dimensions of the bowl are 5.3 x 5.0 cm (2.09 x 1.97″), internal diameter is 2.3 cm (0.9″). The depth is 5.2 cm (2.05″) and this pipe weights 83 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter.

Denmark An extraordinary Danish work! As every proper Danish pipe it’s made of a good briar, shows nice grain and has skilfully designed freehand shape. But the most of all we’re absolutely amazed with its sense of equilibrium – the pipe can surely balance just on its heel (back side of its bottom). Some signs…
