Now that's cool.  A sort of Church Warden style stem and a squatty little fat bowl.

Yes, I runed it. ;)

The short, squat bowl ensures that it doesn't tip over when I put it down and that it cannot hold too much tobacco (and overheat the wood).

if you like the runes and since you have a Tolkein YouTube name, you will love this one...
