Name: The Nemo Notes: Named after the Captain, of course,not the cartoon fish! I originally planned to call it something like "the Squid" but that just sounded silly, and I couldn't find an alternate version that I liked (The French "poulp" brings the wrong connotations in English, and Archeteuthis is right out). It IS a squid, though, at least in body, even if it only has one tentacle. Finally, when it was finished enough to sit it up, I immediately pictured it in the hands of Captain Nemo at the bottom of the ocean, being smoked after a seaweed dinner. Positives: Balances, for starters. Plus, it isn't a pipe that anyone else at the pipe club will be smoking, which could be good or bad. The handcut acrylic tortoiseshell stem removes from the black "shank", but the rest of the pipe is fixed in place. However, a cleaner will pass to the base of the bowl's airhole, and the briar airhole can be reamed out as needed. Despite being quite light for its size and complexity, it offers a nicely large bowl. Very pretty grain. Negatives: Not easy to carry around, and you'd certainly never want to drop it. Definitely meant to be a "hand-held only" pipe too, not a clencher.  Bowl Type: 2.3 cm conical Airhole Size: 5/32"" Total Weight incl Stem: 53.5 grams Bowl Height: 8.5 cm(Bottom of "tail" to top rim) Tobacco Chamber Depth: 4.2 cm Length from Bowl Base to end of Bit: 15 cm To Purchase:All Buyers - Email us and reference this catalog number - Nemo.
