Vintage Weighted Sterling Silver Custom Handcrafted Pipe Tamper

Description: A fully handcrafted custom pipe tamper made from salvaged sterling. This one bears a design of distinction. Stamped ‘S’ at the base, in vintage sterling silver this stately and handsome tamper is longer than most. Weighing a total of 1.6 oz, it sits solid in the hand and can be used in the deepest of pipe bowls. Not overly ornate in Edwardian style, it bears just the right balance of dignity yet somehow noble. If you are looking for something a bit larger with a classic style, this may be your tamper. Those of us in the Pipe Culture know that relaxation with that favorite pipe and tobacco. While a finger or a simple ‘Czech Tool’ serves as an adequate pipe tamper, having fine things that surround our pipe routines make that treasured time even more special. As a humble pipe restorer, I also make pipe tampers that combine my passion for pipes and jeweler’s skills to make tampers that are visually and tactically attractive. I usually salvage certain vintage wares and materials to hand craft my custom tampers. Each is quite unique. While my hours of filing, sanding and polishing on each piece will never be reimbursed, the vintage materials I collect come at some expense. My goal is to make finer tampers for those that appreciate finer pipes and accessories. Previously, I only made these tampers for friends and commissioned clients, though I have been encouraged to offer some of my work along with my pipe restorations. I put much effort into accurate descriptions, history and photos to assist you in selecting exactly what you will be receiving. I appreciate you looking and it is my hope that you will enjoy your tamper as much as I did in crafting it. Please feel free to connect with me for questions prior to your purchase. If there are particular measurements you seek, inquiries or are just interested in the pipe or my process, please contact me. Your 100% satisfaction is more important than any sale for me. Consider following me as a seller. As a committed craftsman, I list better quality pipes regularly in both restored & new condition. As a 25 year, 100% Positive feedback, 5x5 earned rating eBayer, and now a Top Seller, I do take great pride in my descriptions and what I offer with careful packing/quick shipping and communication with YOU!! I will ALWAYS combine shipping & refund you the difference for multiple purchases at the same time. Returns are readily accepted if you don’t enjoy what you receive, but I do ask ONLY in new & unsmoked condition. You WILL want to keep the pipes I send, as transparent photos & descriptions matter. •••I also appraise pipes, collections, estate pipes and will make honest offers to buy pipes or collections offered for sale. I offer custom restorations and stem repair as a priority to select clients also, contact me for details.•••
