Brebbia: Ninja Noce (1001) (9mm) Tobacco Pipe

A plump and upright rendition of the Billiard, this pipe from Brebbia is a fine example of the Italian marque's shaping style. Though it's a classic profile, this piece displays some neoclassical elements, with the bowl, shank, and stem in even proportion with one another, though the bowl itself showcases some curves to its walls and rests upon a rounded, extended, slightly downward-pointing heel. A touch of taper to the rim gives the impression of a stylized Brandy, providing a lovely canvas for the dark, glossy stain of the Ninja Noce finish, its hues matched by the tapered acrylic stem.
