A special ROYAL KATHERINE figurehead

[schifferlbauer]

A lot of Years ago I have carved the figurehead for a model of the Royal Katherine for friend of mine.
It looks good and I was thinking such figurehead I could use well for a pipe holder. So i made it twice and will show you the result.

Best regards

Fantastic work with the figurehead! Did the pipe deserved rest on such beautiful figurehead? Unless it is a DunHill brand... Do you smoke the pipe?

I think it's a VIP pipe? to see the liquido? correct if I am wrong

...I could use well for a pipe holder

...Do you smoke the pipe?

In the Soviet Union was the slogan: PROLETARIES OF ALL COUNTRIES UNITE!
It is necessary to rephrase: SMOKER PIPES unite!

Willi , I really liked face ... Like a living thing!

I smoke pipe since 40 Years and since 3 Years electric pipes.

Willy, this is a good figure! 12 years ago I started trying woodcarving and built a model of this ship. I do not remember the scale. Approximately 1:80
