Ser Jacopo Smooth Billiard with Silver (Maxima) Tobacco Pipe

Compared to some of Ser Jacopo's wilder, more playful Pesaro pieces, this classic straight Billiard is more conservatively shaped. The tall, full-bodied bowl is backed by a tapering shank-and-stem combination that nicely balances the bowl's robust aesthetic. Accented with a bright silver ring and dressed in a dark ruby stain that highlights a plethora of flame grain engulfing the bowl, this is an elegant pipe and a bit of a departure for the Italian workshop in terms of size, yet it still earns its single "Maxima" stamp.
