ich konnte mir eine pipe von Rad unter nen Nagel reißen, geile Strahlung, grünes Cumberland, lasst sich phantastisch rauchen.
Wäre da nur nicht der DaVinci Taste des Vorbesitzers drin gewesen jetzt wird sie halt mit selbigem Kraut weitergeraucht

Bei dem derzeitigen Umwechslungskurs auf jeden Fall einen Klick wert.

Liebe Grüße,
Carsten

Zitat:
"(Insert the sound of "The Honeymooners" Ralph Kramden making the astonished "hummina-hummina" sound here). Wow! This is the only the third Rad-dog (Bulldavis?) of any sort that we have received, and to find something analogous in size, I had to compare previous Radesians, there simply wasn't a size precedent in the two previous bulls. I found one (one) that might be tied with this behemoth, and as you probably already expect, the two executions were as different as night and day. This is one of the more conservative approaches to a standard shape that you are likely to see from Rad, with the Davisonian differences principally coming into play with the subtle fore-tilt of the substantial bowl. The superlatively tight grain that lies beneath the double bead, makes for a wonderful, lattice-like foundation for the smooth dome of birdseye above. This is one totality that will have you thinking "YES!", about 3/4 of a second after you open the glove and pull it out.

Zitat:
"The uninterrupted continuity of the shank and bowl would lend some weight to titling this striking Davis briar as a horn...but I simply can't do it. When I look at it, it just doesn't feel "horn" (yes, I just lobbed you a real soft-ball there, please don't hit it). As a gross generalization, I used to find that an arctic white bit added hints of modernism to pretty much any composition that it was attached to. This notion found itself adrift from my thinking, upon seeing it paired with a dual-stain sandblast. The profound antiquing aspect that is often lent by the process, at least to this describer, changes the white of the bit from modernist to timeless, from the overtly man made to ivory-like. I can quite easily picture this form and coloration gracing an ancient frieze, something that would have been out of the question with a single stain.

Zitat:
"To my mind, the advent/ use of a dual stain on a sandblasted pipe opened so many aesthetic doors that I think I stopped counting at about twenty. Depending on a myriad of factors that range from how it is applied, the shape to which it is applied, which pairing of stains are utilized (ad infinitum), the effect can either add a sense of the weathered, the antique, or (such as in the case of this Davis Radesian) the colors can evoke images and impressions that would be impossible with single staining, such as the mottling on the coat of a jungle cat. The juxtaposition of the natural upon the architectural is delightfully different and compelling. Yet another reason that the Rad Davis briar is becoming hotter than a purloined habanero.
