Brown Smooth Dublin Tobacco Pipe

Sleek, straight pieces like this Dublin might not be the first pieces to come to mind when one thinks of Claudio Cavicchi's work, but his skill with a simple classic can't be understated. Claudio's Dublin renditions can range from the undeniably fanning, broad interpretations to those that are decidedly more trim in comparison, like this particular example. A round shank is paired to an elegantly tapering stem, and here the Italian carver has paired that configuration with a proudly poised Dublin bowl, which commands much of the piece's visual weight. The bowl features a mesmerizing display of excellent grain, highlighted in one of Cavicchi's gorgeous mahogany brown stains.
