Tonni Nielsen Pipe Viking

This pipe is in mint condition.    The shape is perfectly symmetrical including the stem/shank connection.  The grain is magnificent and is highlighted by the light stain.   The straight grain is almost perfect all the way around the bowl.  A flawless piece of briar.  The large bottom surface of the pipe shows a superior Birdseye grain that makes a remarkable transition into straight grain towards the bottom front of the bowl.  Tonni has really outdone himself on this piece.  The pipe is graded "Viking"  and marked with a Viking ship stamp.
