Italian Estates: Castello Collection Great Line Bent Dublin (K) (1996) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 004-006-39539
Since their founding in 1947 by Carlo Scotti, Castello's commitment to handcrafting high-quality pipes has helped elevate the reputation of Italian pipes to luxury status. Furthermore, Castello's personal shaping approach to pipes has helped cultivate the bowl-centric and whimsical Italian neoclassic aesthetic. This bent Dublin is a particularly playful piece, even by Castello's standards. The blossoming bowl showcases a dual finish, with the smooth stain and craggy rustication meeting at a pronounced, mid-set ridge. Furthermore, the shank-and-stem arrangement showcases a subtle sinuousness that keeps focus on the unique bowl but adds a palpable dynamism to the composition.
