Urano Ninfea Bent Dublin with Silver Tobacco Pipe

There appears to be more than a little Pesaro influence present in his bent Dublin design, with its flowing, silver-mounted shank and stem leading into a muscular transition and strongly gestural lower-bowl form. As things proceed to the rim, though, the crisp flaring and craggy plateau up top seem more reminiscent of Danish freehand design.
