Abi Natur Carrack # 1041

If anything it reminds me of a  'Carrack' the 15-16th Century - 2-3 mast - sailing ship often used as a fast warship or for more mundane cargo. It just seems to be cutting through briny sea sails up and hull down. Albeit, some might find the bowl & shank more akin to a Danish pickaxe.

In either case is a beautifuly shaped pipe with is unique front and back of the bowl having the same angle and the rim is on parallel to the shank. Yet, overall the pipe has a more rounded look than angular. An example of Abi's skill with shapes in his mind's eye and bringing them to life. It is a perfect sitter on it's flat bottom.
