I took a trip to the Caribbean a few months ago. I stopped at a ton of islands, and one of my goals was to get some cool wooden paraphernalia. I got this pipe in Curacao. It's a small dutch island in the southern Caribbean. It's often refereed to as a little Amsterdam. There's many colorful dutch style buildings, and honestly it was my favorite island. I picked up this little pipe for only 3$! v v v v v v v v This pipe came from Aruba. It had a nice stainless steel screen, but I lost that in the forest, smoking.. I gave a vendor, 10$ for the pipe and a I <3 Aruba shirt. v v v v v v v v This pipe came from an very old man I met on the beach. He was selling many hand crafted items. I bought a wood idol, an ash tray, and this pipe for 20$ It's an awfully big bowl, because I do believe it's for tobacco. I usually use it as a party bowl, and have a bunch of people match me on bud. v v v v v v v v
Wow very cool! You should just travel the world collecting small wooden hand carved pipes hahah And I love how they all came from different places, yet all have faces on them! Is that an aspect you looked for when picking one out?
thats pretty cool man, im always on the lookout for a wooden that i actually like, these are kinda nice, and honestly a LOT better of a souvenir than a snow globe lol
That's the style all over the West Indies. I used to have one I got in Dominica that was very similar to the above pics. I couldn't get over how solid and smooth it was, now I'm getting bummed that I lost it.
