Bill Shalosky Pipe 752 Black Blast Windscreen Billiard with Fordite
Item # BS244674$475.00
Details
Featuring a raised wall on the front of the bowl to act as a windscreen, this handmade billiard from American pipe maker, Bill Sholosky follows a design from Dunhill before the widespread use of the automobile. Perhaps better described as a breeze screen, the original idea was to accommodate a good smoke at the speed of a horse drawn buggy. Fitted with an shank capped ring of fordite that is brilliantly oriented to the top of the shank and almost completely monochrome, this black blasted and majestic smoker isn't about flashy color, just perfectly proportioned briar with a superb draft and draw.
