Davide Iafisco: Smooth Volcano Tobacco Pipe

Product Number: 002-702-0123

Davide Iafisco is among the new generation of excellent artisan pipe markers, with a unique aesthetic that's entirely his own. Blending influences from his native Italy with design cues from the Danish masters, Iafisco's style combines the best of both schools. Having studied under Teddy Knudsen and Claudio Cavicchi, among other world-class craftspeople, Iafisco has learned from the best and draws on his experience to truly impressive effect. This Volcano is a testament to Iafisco's singular style. Featuring an angled, beveled rim paired to a raised heel and plump undercurve, this piece is rendered in a smaller size than other renditions of the Volcano, making ideal for everyday carry. The bowl transitions smoothly into a near-oval shank that flares out at the conjunction to a hand-cut cumberland saddle stem, with the addition of a handsome metallic band around the mortise. This pipe's bent construction is contrasted by its lively shaping and energetic, forward-urging stance, with a weight distribution well-suited to clenching. The stummel is dressed in a deep ruby stain, highlighting impeccable birdseye around the bowl, with fine cross grain at the heel and shank. Sitting at the perfect juncture of artistry and function, this vivacious Volcano will make a fine addition to any collection.
