File:EyupSabrisPair.jpg | File:EyupSabrisPair.jpg|This pair of wolves is difficult to date, The "yellow" wolf is signed only with his trademark, connected "E.S" intials; no date, no "serial number". Estimated at circa 1979 to 1982. | ||
File:EyupSabris horse.jpg | File:EyupSabris horse.jpg|This horse is signed and dated 1999, and with a full presentation case, plaque, matching carved tamper, but no papers. Sabri did a long series of unicorns that look exactly like this horse but have a single, spiral, and threaded-to-unscrew-and -store-for safekeeping horn of black water buffalo. It weighs in at a hefty 148 grams. | ||
File:EyupSabris Dragons.jpg | File:EyupSabris Dragons.jpg|This dragon is signed and dated 1983. It is virgin, but came with no case. | ||
File:EyupSabris grouping.jpg | File:EyupSabris grouping.jpg|Upper most are two signed and dated Sabris. On the left, a straight billiard, horn stem with a pierced arabesque accent band around the top of the bowl and a slotted (double-wall) rim that allows light from above to shine through the pinhole piercings). It is signed and dated 1998 dated, but no with tamper or papers. At right is a tiny signed and dated (1998 again) arabesque pot. | ||
</ | File:EyupSabri vines-and-flowers.jpg|Very early (signed-and-dated 1982) vines-and-flowers abstract with an acrylic stem and red presentation case, which dates it before the Korn family/Royal Meerschaum Store exclussive.<br> | ||
File:EyupSabri arabesque.jpg|A spectacular arabesque-and-Sabri-signature big bold flowers, 1/2 bent pot in a blue presentation case (white lid suggests pipe is a c.a. 1984 -85). It is also a "ring" (a la Sevkhet Gezer, alongside of whom Sabri was carving at the time). That arabesque or "Celtic knot band around the upper part of the bowl is actually detached from the bowl itself, and rotates smoothly over sloping channels of bundled papyrus reeds while at the same time being retained securely against separation from the bowl by overhanging and under-slung ledges. This "concentric, pinched-at-the-waist-bundles of reeds" is echoed in the shank and crown treatments. While very large, the pipe only weighs only 49.2 grams. | |||
