Tampers & Tools: Gabriele Tamper - Baseball Bat Boxwood

Whether you're a sports fan, or just a fan of elegant materials, this boxwood tamper from Gabriele fits the bill. With its ultra-pale coloring, the boxwood itself makes for a stunning presentation, and the tamper has been carved in the shape of the classic baseball bat. Of particular note is the base, which as been cut at a 45 degree angle, allowing one to scoop tobacco and ashes from the edge of the chamber to the center, rather than the traditional straight, downward motion.
