Rusticated Bent Brandy with Delecta Mount (R1) Tobacco Pipe

This handsome horn-mounted Ser Jacopo combines a curling, very Pesaro gesture with stout proportions to create a robust, yet simultaneously rather whimsical take on the classic bent Brandy. The bowl is a real fireplug, full and broad to the point of almost looking more like an Apple (and of course, making room for a very large chamber while it's at it). Add to this the pronounced curve of the sturdy shank, and the result is a fulsome, capacious, and deep-textured bowl which rests in hand, whether cradled or gripped, naturally and without obstruction.
