Default This is a riot...new pipe rest...

I just picked this up off ebay for little more than a Jackson, and it's a hoot...faux ivory pipe rest...got it today and cleaned it up and now it's ready to go out on the porch...

I like it, Neur'cer. Cool find. It cries out for a swatch of red velvet padding on the floor of the chariot.

Very.... original, on the edge of eccentric. How big is it? Can't gauge the size from the foto.

Allow me, sir. It's a statue of three white horses and 11 naked men and women writhing and dragging a mother-of-pearl and semi-precious stone olivewood carved chariot up a mountainside. Lionel steam locomotive train pellets go in the horses nostrils and they blow HUGE clouds of white smoke while the chariot wheels spin and strobes flash on the back. About a yard long and holds 500 pipes with twisted silver wire hooks and braided horsehair loops. Very cool. Too bad you can't see it.

I hope he doesn't change the picture before you get home.

Hmmm...maybe I'll add some red velvet or felt in the base of the chariot to cushion the pipe...great idea, guys...
