Brown rusticated pipe, classic straight Dublin model with black/ochre variegated ebonite mouthpiece. Unique rating. The model features a beautiful cream-coloured horn army insert on the pipe stem, giving it a superior class. The floc joint on the mouthpiece makes it very comfortable as it can be removed even when the pipe is hot. The pipe has a fresh and very refined line and is extremely pleasant to smoke. A wonderful model, very classic but always contemporary, which never tires. The smooth rim is very classy and denotes the craftsman's attention to even the smallest details. Mike learned the best from his mentor, Tom Eltang, enhancing his sense of proportion and good taste to create models that represent his personality and ideas, while demonstrating his remarkable craftsmanship. The pipe is medium in size and stands out for its more than discreet bowl, which guarantees excellent smokeability in any situation. Its incredible lightness makes it ideal for smoking while walking or sitting comfortably in an armchair. Its rustication is an example of how something new and original can be created. The inspiration came from observing the mark left on the sand by a wave that had just receded from the shore. Mike reproduces this same design on his beautiful pipes. The wave effect is remarkable, created on purpose with a long and meticulous process that makes the pipe anything but ordinary. Its long-seasoned briarwood ensures a consistently dry smoke. Personally, I find it an adorable pipe which, even with a small bowl, allows you to smoke peacefully for at least an hour. Its lightness between the teeth makes it difficult to put down.
Mike Sebastian Bay is one of the youngest, most emerging and important pipe makers in Denmark. His career as a pipe maker began in 2015, working alongside Tom Eltang and learning the secrets of the trade. In a short time, he began to establish himself in the pipe world with his own style and character, creating compact models with a generous dose of Danish extravagance. He has invented new models, some of which have already become iconic, such as the Hobo Poker. His rustication is unique, inspired by the marks left on the sand after the tide has receded. This is an excellent opportunity to try a Danish High Grade pipe at a more affordable price.
