Something special, one of my stacks with quite a twist. I added an extra view in the top photo so please scroll down to look at both views. I realize the top view is a bit deceiving. The outside bowl is in fact cylindrical, it is not tapered. The two flats that are angled extend down from the top about ½ inch that form the smooth rectangle on the top. It is an optical illusion that makes the bowl look tapered I do not know what got into me but I like the results very much, I do not believe I have ever done anything like this in the past. It is a subtle look but it sure makes a difference with the lines going at an angle.. Awesome blast, nice colors and a beautiful top and it is a sitter! Hand cut Ebonite mouthpiece w/Delrin tennon, hand made solid sterling silver “Hammer Textured” fitment. Thank you very much for looking.
