    Stanwell bliss

    I have two Stanwell bulldogs and they are wonderful, but that's probably not a large enough sample size to determine if they're always spot-on

    The Lady Cave

    thank you! I've started looking for pipe furniture, but it's all kind of expensive...I'd rather buy another pipe! :lol:

    The Lady Cave

    Somehow, amazingly, with my 4 cats I have managed to train them NOT to get up there. I can't believe it worked, but it has.

    The Lady Cave

    My cave is in our living room. I puff my pipes on our plush green sectional sofa while watching movies, surfing the net, or conversing with friends and family. My pipes are displayed on our mantle on a piece of lace, accented with antique vases, books, and dried roses. Sadly, I don't have a...

    Pipes with photo-etched finishes?

    Thanks for that, that was helpful! Well, I do think mine is pretty and it smokes great, so I guess in the end that's all that matters. I'm going to try to get in touch with Vector though.

    Pipes with photo-etched finishes?

    That is one opinion :lol: I do like mine and find it pretty, though some of the designs I find atrocious. It's an inexpensive, mass-produced pipe, but it's an interesting conversation piece and it smokes well, if a little hot.

    Interesting concept of "a place to smoke my pipe"....

    But there is definitely a generational difference. I told my Dad about man caves, and he said, "Isn't that what the whole house is for?"

    Interesting concept of "a place to smoke my pipe"....

    This thread makes me sad. I'm sorry for those who have to "escape." My hobby is pipesmoking, my husband's is craft beer, and we support each other 100%. I buy him special drinking glasses, he buys me pipes, I go to beer tastings and he comes to our local B&M with me all the time and smells...

    My Shelf and Tobacco Journal.

    I've never thought about a journal; what a great idea! And that tamper is beyond cool. I also love that Meerschaum.

    Pipes with photo-etched finishes?

    Here's a someone reviewing a Vector on youtube, but it doesn't appear to have the photo-etching: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg78t1ebITA

    Pipes with photo-etched finishes?

    scotties22 thanks for that finding that! I guess they somehow adhere the film to the briar, then lacquer it? That's just conjecture. So far I really enjoy smoking it, so I guess that's all that matters. But I would like to find out more about them. I guess I'll write the company.

    The Accidental Blend

    My husband also really likes a good room note. I'll have to try this sometime, thanks!

    A second pipe but what?

    I echo this. I have a Stanwell Bulldog and a Savinelli Crosby style pipe, and they are great!
