About This Pipe
Founded in 1974, the Becker workshop is a family-owned operation in Italy currently manned by third-generation artisan Federico Becker. Having learned from his father and grandfather before him, Federico has cultivated a unique style marked by crisp shaping and rakish, angular silhouettes: qualities that are readily evident in this bent Dublin.
As is his penchant, Federico has taken the hallmarks of the Dublin — the flaring rim and narrow heel, the forward-leaning posture — and dramatized it in distinctly Becker fashion. The heel is exceptionally crisply pointed, and the walls of the bowl make a linear, angled ascent to the wide, subtly inflated rim. Offsetting the architectural angularity of the bowl, the short, upturned shank is swiftly met by a long, deeply bent stem of vulcanite whose rich cumberland finish pairs handsomely with the stummel's dark, smoky sandblast.
