Claudio Cavicchi: Smooth Tuban (CCCC) Tobacco Pipe

This Tuban from Claudio Cavicchi boasts a Horn-like build, with a tall, muscular bowl canted at the fore and a fluid curvature comprising the shank-and-stem arrangement. The bowl's forward drive and the rim's forward slant lend the composition a dynamic and active posture in profile. A fetching series of hardwood bands accent the shank end and stem base, adding a variety of unique colors to the composition that complement the honey-blonde smooth finish dressing the stummel. Said finish highlights an impressive assortment of grain across the flanks of the bowl.
