Becker: Sandblasted Strawberry Wood Liverpool (Four Clubs) Tobacco Pipe

The pointed heel, tilted rim, and elongated shank of this Becker Liverpool lend it a sleek, angular, and aerodynamic profile. Such an aesthetic is a signature of Federico's work, uniting his pipes under an umbrella of consistency while each piece's exact shaping, size, and proportions remain unique and individual. This particular one is rather compact, though the chamber depth belies the overall size. The silhouette imparts an air of crispness, most evidenced by the firm line of the bowl's fore coming to points at the fore of both rim and heel. Such a motif is echoed by the finish — the sandblasted strawberry wood of the stummel revealing crisp grain patterns, accented by the smooth-polished rim and cumberland stem.
