I'm curious to what the bowl smelled like coming from over seas. 12 years ago I bought a Longchamp billiard from Greece. I was new to ebay at the time so I didn't look at where it was coming from lol. Anyway, when I got it in the mail it had the most fabulous aroma in the bowl. It was a cross between a good cigar and the most pleasant aromatic anyone has ever smoked. Unfortunately I couldn't remember the sellers information, it could have been from an antique shop over there as far as I know.I really wasn't in the market for a new pipe but came across this Sherlock Holmes "Original" and couldn't resist. It's as nicely grained as any Peterson I've seen in a while; beautiful birdseye! I saw the pics and I was a gonner. It's an estate pipe I ordered from Serbia which made me nervous for a number of reasons; delivery was estimated at 45+ days but it arrived today in just 10 days, well packed, as presented and in beautiful condition. Color me happy!
Nothing remarkable; very little aroma if any in fact. I believe the pipe was smoked very little if at all. Not a single tooth scar on the mouthpiece nor mark in the wood anywhere. If it was a "rejuvenate" job it's the best one I've ever seen.
Bloody beautiful IFI really wasn't in the market for a new pipe but came across this Sherlock Holmes "Original" and couldn't resist.
