S & M UNSMOKED Small Chambered Lovat/ Featherweight/ 360 Flame Grain/ U.S.A. 

UNSMOKED! Here’s a basic but still valued, featherweight Lovat shaped pipe housing a smaller than average chamber 11/16^th inches in diameter and just a little over 1 – ¼ inches deep. It’s ideal for shorter duration smokes of your favorite flake and pressed cut blends. And with a semblance of flame grain and a heel replete with birds-eye end, it will definitely smoke sweetly and dryly for a lifetime of enjoyment. Draft hole is center and a hare’s breath above the bottom of the chamber. There is an effortless draw. Tenon to mortise union is sound, snug and flush. Pipe does not accept a filter. Pipe weighs only 1. 14 ounces (32.3 grams) No fills. No handling marks. Pipe passes a cleaner with ease.

Regarding graining, the well-respected authority on the subject, Carl Ehwa, in his landmark book, Pipes & Tobaccos, writes:

“When selecting briar pipes, quality of wood and workmanship and the type of graining are the prime considerations. Pipes made of dense, straight grain wood …  have a tendency to absorb moisture much more slowly, which means they will smoke more sweetly and need to be rested less often. The bird's–eye, or end grain at the bottom of the bowl of a straight grain pipe absorbs moisture more quickly than other grains. Yet, because of its position, it allows the moisture to drain away from the tobacco and the channel, thus keeping the smoke dry.” ~ Pg 128
