Italian Estates: Moretti Partially Rusticated Billiard (𝛿𝛿𝛿) (1) (2020) (Unsmoked) Tobacco Pipe

This thoroughly Italian Billiard by Moretti is a fine example of neoclassic style. The exaggerated size of the pipe with its jutting heel and playful backward cant put it well within the peninsular aesthetic often seen from Italian pipe makers. The tall bowl is capped with a smooth rim and houses a generous chamber within its thick insulating walls, perfect for long cool smokes. The round shank is equipped with an acrylic saddle stem, promoting a comfortable smoking posture. Dressed in a crisp rustication and deep black stain, the stummel offers plenty of tactile interest, contrasted nicely by its smooth rim and junction.
