Italian Estates: Ser Jacopo Rusticated Rhodesian (R1) (Maxima Maxima Maxima) Tobacco Pipe

With an emphasis on height, this Rhodesian from Ser Jacopo is a stunning, large-scale piece worthy of its three "Maxima" stamps. It sports 2.5 inches of chamber depth, rivaling most Stacks, with thick chamber walls to keep things well-insulated. On the exterior, it's been finished in a crisp rustication, with a smooth polish along the rim and around the dual bead lines, allowing the latter to divide the piece neatly before its steep taper to base. It might take a lot of briar to make one of these enormous pipes, but none of it has gone to waste. Despite some minor rim darkening, condition is very good.
