This pips has a properly drilled draught hole that allows for the smooth passage of a pipe cleaner. This pipe started out as a plateau block of wood from Mimmo in Italy that I drew the shape of this pipe on and drilled the holes in it and then cut off the excess wood. After this I proceeded to sand the stummel down to the desired shape and size. I then drilled the holes in the ebonite rod for the stem and glued the tenon in and then shaped the stem and the sand it and the stummel by hand. After that I stained and polished the stummel and stem with carnauba wax and did a final dry buff on both. Ithilien was a region and fiefdom of Gondor bordering Mordor in eastern Middle-earth.

Handmade in Texas, USA by Joshua Sanders of Frassati Pipes. This Morta pipe is made with 6,000 year old bog oak from the Ukraine and a coffee acrylic stem with a delrin tenon for longer life. The pipe is very beautiful with the acrylic stem adding just the perfect amount of contrast to the mostly black with a little bit of grey morta stummel. This pipe started out out as block of wood that I drew the pipe shape on and then drilled the airway, mortise, and Tobacco chamber. The pipe’s airway is spot on in the middle of the Tobacco chamber giving the pipe perfect draw plus you can slide a pipe cleaner through the stem and into the tobacco chamber without any bumps. Length: 5 1/4 inches. Width: 1 3/4 inches. Tobacco chamber width: 3/4 inch. Tobacco chamber depth: 1 9/16 inches. Airhole diameter: 1/8 inch.
