I know, you all have figured out by now I'm diggin' strange pipes... with taste, mind you, but... these really had a different approach that I rather enjoyed! All by Tatsuo Tajima.

Some I found particularly intriguing:

A strange snail...

You do like odd pipes.
 
Hey, with the exception of the sober, basic poker (which I really like), yeah, pipe's gotta match the smoker, I guess. 8)

Looks like a nice interpretation of Bo Nordh's "Ramses" to me.

Tajima makes some beautiful pieces of functional art in briar. I've got a lot of respect for this guy. His prices are also reachable(doubtful that this will be the case for long, though).
 
A few of those are approaching pornography. I know you're all thinking it...I'll say it.

I love his stuff too. I've been eying this one over at Quality Briar. A steal at $375.

...no, you're quite right. 8) I was wondering how long it was going to take for someone to bring it up. More to the point...who bought and smoked them?
 
Tokutomi does some outright erotic pipes, these look slightly more subtle!
