This creation is absolute work of art by great artisan Antoniewski. Many pipe makers produce freehands in the form of three dimensional forms, but this work of art is completely a different approach.

The super sculptural imagination, unbelievable power of artisan to carve the briar and strong ability to form and finish it is just some of the obvious characteristics of this kit. This brilliant piece of art exhibits two separate part; body and tail. The body is composed of 7 segments in back and 13 segments in stomach. The tail expresses the full bent shape with 7 segments and sting. This stunning creation comes with its own fitting tamper and customized box.
