Unknown Maker 2

These partridgewood pipes look like African blackwood, but the lighter color and unique grain under the ferrules gave them away. There is nothing special about the workmanship (just as with Unknown Maker 1), indeed it is rather crude. But they are different, and this maker marched to the beat of his own drum.

Partridgewood well disguised as African blackwood	Catalin ring caps indicate reasonably recent manufacture
	Weirdly shaped parts
	Interesting combing pattern
