It's not a bass, but nice wood, nonetheless...

CB is endlessly fascinating to look at.  Every piece is different.  Lots variety in graining, figuring, color.  Nice bowl.

Cuckoo for Coco eh? Me too! These bowls look alot like the variety of coco used on Tributes.

If someone used their skill and art-is-tree to carve a pipe, wood we call it smokobolo?

Public service message:
 
Smoking anything in a coco bolo pipe could put you in the hospital.  It is a known skin irritant; I can't imagine what it'd do to your lungs.
 
Eating or drinking from any rosewood container is a bad idea.

You said it, Bradley.  I was merely trying to extend the wordplay, not to suggest actually doing it.  A cocobolo pipe would be a REALLY BAD idea.

I figured everybody here knew that, but I just wanted to make sure.

There are definitely substances that merit warning.  Pretty as she be...coco bolo is one of them.  My hat's off to Alembic for developing the expertise to safely and effectively work wonders with this noxious wood, but it's definitely not to try at home without knowing how to protect yourself.
