About the Item

 

TWELVE-TIMES LACQUER STAINED SMOOTH BRANDY SMOKING PIPE KIT 

 

You are seeing the VIP smoking pipe kit from the Japanese master Tajima. The first thing, which catches the eyes about this high-end piece is actually the charming technique of finishing. This stunning work brings the old Japanese culture in for front. The idea behind this fantastic design is the "Japanese Blossom" . Tajima tried to reflect his feeling about Japanese Blossom into this piece of art. This creation stained with more than six different colors, yet very charming and with absolute harmony.  

 

The pipe offers the twelve times Lacqure-stanied system. The artisan performed the fine sandblast and then he stained the pipe in twelve separate times. The intensive work of staining took him two months and with preparation of handmade brass tamper and stand, the whole process was done in three months. 

 

Another interesting point about this item is the simplicity and innovation of the pipe shape. The pipes offer the new shape of Brandy, very elegant and completely fit with the colors. This Brandy pipe is very light and can place on hand and stand easily. Pipe stand and Tamper are made of briar and Brass. The pipe stand is in the shape of the hill with fine sandblast appearacnce. This unique kit can be highly appreciated by the smokers who are deeply affected by Japanese culture.
