Lord of the Pipes, Baranor 5th in the series of LOTR pipes, this is indeed one fine pipe. With smooth faces on the both sides of the bowl, with plenty of texture and birds eyes, this pipe is a pleasure to hold. Featuring long bamboo stem for the coolest and driest of smoke, and as all the Hobbits tell me, this pipe is indeed pleasure to smoke. The bamboo is natural and un-lined to absorb the moisture from burning tobacco. Well balance pipe and light for its size and fine addition to your existing LOTR collection or to smoke on its own...
Size	47x35x265mm
Chamber Diameter	20mm
Color	Antique Black over Tan
Finish	Carnauba Wax
Stem	Natural Bamboo with Vulcanite bit
Filter	None

Last week I recieved my 7 th Jan Zeman pipe...the Baranor.
Iwas previosly a little reluctant to try one of the LOTR Pipes [Ultra Conservative],but Jan con vinced me that the Bamboo extended stem would result in a great cool smoke.
What an understatement.I have smoked the Baranor extensively for the past week,and can only say that this is the coolest smoking pipe Ihave in my collection.it is a superb piece of work.
in addition to this great new Pipe,Jan has also restored the stem on an old favourite Dutch pipe by hand carving a new Ebonite stem for me.
Not only a great Pipe designer,but a great restorer as well.
Terrific work Jan,and as always,a pleasure to work with.
regards
