This Neerup Churchwarden is a spectacular display of modern Danish pipemaking ingenuity, crafted by the hands of master artisan Peder Jeppesen. Marrying avant-garde geometry with highly creative accent work, this brand new, unsmoked pipe represents a uniquely elevated take on the traditional long-stemmed churchwarden format.
The stummel is carved into a striking, paneled freehand shape. The bowl is treated with a rich, multi-toned brown rustication that yields an incredibly tactile, grippy texture, while the robust shank sweeps upward to support a long, elegant churchwarden stem. The stem is made from high-grade acrylic, displaying a translucent, swirling olive-green and amber moss pattern that shifts beautifully in the light. Jeppesen's signature creative flair is on full display at the shank junction, which features a custom multi-ring extension incorporating a vibrant, turquoise-colored accent band.
A top-down view reveals the intricate shaping of the rim, showing off a clean, hexagonal geometric border. The rim itself is left entirely smooth and polished, providing a gorgeous contrast to the rugged rustication below and framing a pristine, unburnt tobacco chamber.
