POUL ILSTED EARLY HANDCUT GRADE " F " STRAIGHT BRANDY




Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:27191639Brand: POUL ILSTED
Original Description:
In 2017 the pipe world lost the great Poul Ilsted, one of the finest Danish high grade carvers of all time who's pipes will be treasured for ages. This is an early piece from Poul, a straight Brandy grade "F". While his grading is a bit of a mystery this pipe is certainly impressive. While a classic shape, I've always felt the Danes excelled at the Brandy giving new life to the shape while showing profound Danish influence. This one sits comfortably in the hand and is perfectly proport...ioned and well balanced. Shank is chubby and meets the original vulcanite stem with ivorine extension and slight fishtail bit. There was a bite hole near the bit on the underside that was repaired and is almost unnoticeable. Finish is a warm tigers-eye contrast and the briar shows incredible straight and flame grain while the heel is loaded with birdseye. A fantastic pipe from one of the truly great!

Dimensions: 5 1/4" Long, 1 5/8" Tall, 20mm Chamber Width, 1 3/8" Chamber Depth
