Rolando Negoita Sandblasted Chimney with Silver (2008) (Unsmoked) Tobacco Pipe

I always love seeing a good Rolando Negoita. This pipe is two years young, and is simply a marvel to hold. Since Rolando teaches design and metal smithing, it comes to no surprise that his silver work is not only unique, but exquisite as well. The band looks almost like thickly crumpled paper, and it matches very well against the tall bowl with it's own unique sandblasted patterns. This must have surely been a joy to produce, and I can't seem to put it down (though I get into trouble if I hold too many cool pipes at once).
