Castello: 'Castello' Billiard with Silver (KK) Tobacco Pipe

This sleek, sophisticated Billiard from Castello exudes charm and class with its understated line work, handsome finish, and elegant shaping. Tall and upright, the bowl stands proudly at the fore of a slender, arrow-straight shank-and-stem arrangement that tapers swiftly from the transition to the bit. The diminishing line of the shank and stem keeps most of the composition's visual weight anchored with the bowl. The bowl's firm, pronounced heel adds a touch of musicality to the form that can be easily felt in hand, but it doesn't overwhelm the shape's otherwise agile build. The auburn Castello smooth finish dresses the stummel and highlights flame grain on one flank of the bowl and birdseye across the other, while a sterling silver band accents the junction and provides a dose of flash to the design in profile.
