The Novelist e-pipe
The Novelist e-pipe features a truly remarkable briar wood grain. Straight, defined lines run from the bottom to the top of the billiard-shaped bowl, creating a visually rare and stunning effect. This unique grain pattern gave me the perfect opportunity to experiment with a new contrast staining technique, and I’m thrilled with the outcome. At…
Photographer’s e-pipe
The Photographer’s e-pipe is one of my custom-commissioned, straight billiard-style mechanical mods. Handcrafted from Algerian briar wood, this piece features a heavily rusticated finish, giving it a bold and rugged character. While it’s not the first time I’ve used this rustication technique, it’s the first time it turned out this unexpectedly well—maybe I’ve finally mastered…
Rhodesian Fog e-pipe
The Rhodesian Fog e-pipe was a unique challenge for me, as I had never attempted this particular shape before.

XC90 e-pipe
XC90 e-pipe was a new kind of challenge for me. To achieve the desired result, I had to precisely align and join two mirrored pieces of ash wood. To enhance the visual appeal, I added a thin slice of mahogany between them, creating a striking contrast. For the fire button, I chose bird’s eye maple,…
Drew 350 e-pipe

Rouge Egg e-pipe has been moving around my workshop for quite a long time. I experimented with various stains and buffing techniques to achieve this particular look—and I’m really happy with the result.

Dragon Spine e-pipe is a custom-built mechanical pipe mod, crafted upon a client’s request.

Bernstein e-pipe
The Bernstein e-pipe is my first bent billiard pipe mod. It was custom-made based on a request to combine an amber stem and fire button with 3,000-year-old black morta wood. I brushed the bowl’s surface once again to highlight the natural grain of this partially fossilized oak. The bowl is accented with a small wooden…
