Thanks for looking and as usual I will combine postage if you buy more than one of my items from this auction. European tracked postage is £9.85 and for the rest of the world is £11.85......I have had ...to increase charges following Royal Mail price increases in April but will still combine any number of pipes for the price of one.On 28-Nov-20 at 13:24:36 GMT, seller added the following information: This is a Fantastic Refurbished Very Lightly Smoked Nording HANDMADE 1/2 Bent Freehand Sitter, with a beautiful contrasting light tan and deep red/walnut staining to bowl and shank. Eric Nording, born in Copenhagen, was an engineer and pipe-smoker who became involved in pipe carving accidentally, when as a result of not being paid for machinery, he became a partner in Son Pipes. Nording eventually bought out his partner and in the late 1960s re-named the company Nording. After the 1960-1980 heyday years Nording now runs his business from a workshop annexe to his house, employing about 20 workers, and making about 15, 000 pipes a year, the vast majority for export. The briar of this HANDMADE Freehand is part smooth and tan stained, and part bark carved and deep red/walnut stained, the bowl rim crisp and un-marked. The pipe is a "Lie Back" Sitter, the shank flattened and smooth on the name-plate allowing this to happen. The stem is a perfect decorative push-mount saddle Fishtail, the Nording N Logo on the top of the stem, like the rest of the pipe in as good as MINT condition. The bowl needed minimal reaming and was cleansed, the stem was fully sanitised to make the pipe ready to smoke as soon as you receive it, before the whole pipe was lightly polished and waxed to give the Fantastic Finish you can see in the photos. This BIG Bowled pipe draws and will smoke perfectly, it sits comfortably in the palm of your hand, so well balanced and very, very tactile!!!
