Description: Michael Parks 2015 Pipes and Tobaccos Magazine's Pipe of the Year Sandblasted Morta Lovat Canadian Artian Tobacco Pipe. Crafted in Canada by master pipe carver Michael Parks, this Lovat, fashioned from Morta, is a perfect example of his excellent work and remains in new and unsmoked condition. Only 30 were made for P&T's annual and highly sought after Pipe of the Year series, with this one being serialized as 8/30. This one is also notably fashioned from morta, a petrified bog oak that's prized for its resistance to heat and lively grain patterning. Features a handcut vulcanite stem with Parks' signature Mother of Pearl signet along the topside and also comes complete with its original pipe bag. Canadian pipe maker Michael Parks brings a modern touch to traditional Anglo-French pipe shapes, combining timeless designs with fresh, contemporary aesthetics. His craftsmanship shines through in his pipes' exceptional finishes and superb smoking qualities. This Lovat pipe, crafted by Parks in 2015 for Pipes and Tobaccos magazine's Pipe of the Year, exemplifies classic proportions with a robust character. It features all the hallmarks of the Lovat style — a smoothly tapered bowl, an extended round shank, and a concise saddle stem — creating a sleek, iconic profile. The substantial bowl and extended shank-stem combination offer a solid, well-balanced feel in hand, highlighting Parks' expertise in traditional pipe making. Dressed in a crisp sandblast, the stummel offers a wealth of hypnotic grain and rugged texture.Approximate Measurements: Length: 6.17 in. / 156.72 mm.Weight: 1.84 oz. / 52.16 g.Bowl Height: 2.27 in. / 57.66 mm.Chamber Depth: 1.78 in. / 45.21 mm.Chamber Diameter: 0.79 in. / 20.07 mm.Outside Diameter: 1.72 in. / 43.69 mm.
