Peter Heeschen
Blowfish A
w/ Prehistoric Mastodon Ivory Ring
About the Maker:
Peter Heeschen produces approximately 30 pipes per month. Mr.
Heeschen's pipes are made from top quality aged briar. Each pipe will smoke
like it is already broken in from the very first bowl. Mr. Heeschen uses
only top grade German Vulcanite, Cumberland, or Synthetic Amber for the Hand-Cut
Stems. The mouth pieces are cut down to 3.7 mm to 4.2 mm for a very
comfortable fit. Mr. Heeschen uses antique Ivory, Whale Tooth, Silver,
Bamboo, and many Exotic Hardwoods to decorate the stems or shanks of his pipes.
All of Peter Heeschen's pipes are drilled large for a good draw, and they will
accommodate a large fluffy pipe cleaner. The engineering of each pipe is
superb, and the tenon-mortise connections fit perfectly with no gaps.

Description:
This Blowfish shape has an extra surface that is unusual on Peter's
regular blowfish shape. The Birdseye grain is caught very well on both
sides, and the cross grains flow along the lines that separate the sides of the
bowl. The stem is
thin and extremely comfortable, and features a Prehistoric Mastodon Ivory ring
insert that has its own stunning checkered grains. This pipe comes with a leather sleeve.
