Ropp: Vintage Sandblasted (32S) Tobacco Pipe

Like many Ropp shapes, the French marque's "32S" displays a sleek, aerodynamic profile, full of traditional English and French style. It represents the more streamlined, diminutive end of the style's shaping spectrum, posing a svelte silhouette and angular disposition through the Dublin bowl's forward cant. A rather compact piece, it's a versatile pipe, fit for any occasion, that benefits from a noticeably deep chamber.

Sourced from old stummels found at the Chapuis-Comoy factory, Ropp's Vintage line presents old-school, classic designs that were turned decades ago but never finished. This piece is dressed in a dark-stained sandblast and fitted with a stem of genuine horn, hearkening back to the style of mouthpieces from the early 1900s. It accentuates the vintage motif, making for a thoroughly retro aesthetic.
