[QUOTE="ZuluCollector, post: 16828, member: 22"] While I was in Chicago I was able to add three of Adam Davidson's pipes to my collection. Adam is one of my favorite younger artisans and you'll see why when you take a gander at his work picture below. The first piece is a black-bamboo shanked apple that weighs in at a negligible 17 grams. I have fingers that weigh more than this. The blast is really interesting; it looks like the pipe was blown out of the end of the bamboo shank. [IMG]https://2img.net/r/ihimizer/img398/5056/adbamboo2yd0.jpg[/IMG] The second pipe is a piece Adam has dubbed "The MacDonald Bulldog." This little nosewarmer has proportions that make it look like Salvador Dali might have painted it once. The opposite of the bamboo piece, this piece weighs a hefty 68 grams and it is only 4.34 inches long. Again, the blast is perfect for the shape; its shallow definition preserves and accents the pipe's lines. [IMG]https://2img.net/r/ihimizer/img398/3614/adbulldog2rb1.jpg[/IMG] The final of the three pipes is a combination smooth-sandblast piece that Adam dubbed "The Amoeba." I find that I can gaze at the bowl top for long stretches of time – it is so interesting. The pipe sports a little landscape of sensuous curves and birdseye that stands in lovely contrast to the finely detailed blast. The shank ferrule sports a nicely variegated horn ferrule.
