Danish pipemaking is all about design and artisanship. The late Poul Ilsted was a giant among giants, there will never be another pipe maker like him. This pipe is a perfect jewel, a perfect example of Ilsted’s art of Danish pipemaking. It has by our count at least twelve precisely formed facets so subtly arranged that we had to count them to make sure.Poul Ilsted was known as the master of facet. He had a steady hand for the art of pipemaking and a steady eye for beauty of... design. He made all his pipes by hand. Just the briar against a belt sander but the lines and surfaces look laser sharp. Posting extra pictures to highlight this precision. An Ilsted pipe is not just a carved with perfectly ground facets. It is a beautiful and elegant wood sculpture that personifies Danish design, but still looks looks like a pipe and smokes great. The stampings are:Poul Ilstedhandcut Made in Denmark The dimensions are: Length: 4 ¾ Height of bowl: 1 3/16 The pipe, including stem, has only been hand buffed with a micro cloth.
