Handmade Eskimo by Czech carver Martin Čermák, executed in his signature sculptural style. The bowl flares into a wide, disc-like profile with a flattened heel and deep, volcanic texture across the exterior, contrasted by a smooth, softly rounded rim showing natural grain swirl. The shank transitions cleanly into a German ebonite stem with a subtle marbled pattern, shaped to a comfortable bite and finished with a lanyard pass-through — a functional nod to Čermák’s outdoors / workshop smoking inspiration.
This is not a production shape — it’s a true bench-made, carved-form pipe, leaning into the Eskimo profile’s low center of gravity and broad-hand feel. Chamber geometry is conical and deep enough for a proper bowl, while the exterior remains lightweight relative to its footprint.
