The Zulu, inspired by the pipes smoked by the Zulu tribe of South Africa and is a variation of the Dublin shape, with a forward-leaning bowl and a slightly bent stem. The bowl has a conical chamber that flares out at the rim, giving it a graceful and elegant appearance. The Zulu shape is also known as a Woodstock or a Yachtsman, and it belongs to the Billiard family of pipe shapes. The Zulu pipe shape is a good choice for smokers who want a comfortable and easy-to-smoke pipe that can be clenched in the teeth or held in the hand.
