Italian Estates: Davide Iafisco Sandblasted Bulldog (2016) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 004-006-43080
Though he hails from Italy, Davide Iafisco is a pipe maker who draws inspiration from Danish, Japanese, and American design traditions. His various influences are channeled through his personal creative prism, resulting in designs that are singularly his own. This Bulldog is a fetching showcase of Iafisco's recognizable style, displaying his typical measuredness and precise line work. Up front, a stocky bowl stands atop an angular heel and grows thick walls that flare to a beadline-wrapped waistline before tapering inward to a flat rim. A wide transition pairs said bowl to a thick diamond shank and a sleek tapered stem, with this shank and stem providing balance to the totality of the composition. Dressing this piece is a ebony sandblasted finish that provides ample texture to enjoy throughout the stummel.
