This striking “A” Grade Freehand pipe by renowned Danish artisan Erik Nording is a textbook example of his bold, sculptural style. Hand-carved in Denmark, this pipe features deep, expressive rustication across the bowl and shank, contrasted by a polished smooth rim and base for added visual depth.
The standout feature is its bright yellow acrylic accents at both the stem base and shank cap—offering a pop of color that enhances the pipe’s handcrafted character. The bowl is tall and slightly flared, with a generous chamber ideal for extended, cool smoking sessions. The bent black acrylic stem is comfortable for jaw-hanging and features Nording’s traditional wide-bit design for optimal airflow.
Stamped “Erik Nording – Made in Denmark – A”, this pipe reflects the artisan’s mid-range grading system, where “A” indicates a high-quality handmade piece without the price tag of his top-tier grades.
