Italian Estates: Ser Jacopo 'La Fuma' Smooth Dublin with Silver Band (57) Tobacco Pipe

This "57" Dublin from Ser Jacopo boasts a tall, muscular bowl that flares toward a domed rim encompassed by two wrapping beadlines. The bowl towers over the arrow-straight shank-and-stem arrangement that trails out back, and it houses a respectably deep chamber for plenty of leisurely smoking sessions. This piece is firm yet lightweight in hand, with plenty of space above the transition to drape a finger. A warm, traditional smooth finish dresses the stummel and highlights fine tendrils of flame grain across either flank of the bowl, while a band of sterling silver around the shank end provides a dose of flash to the overall composition.
