Alex Florov: Smooth Volcano with Bamboo Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 002-354-0242
Alex Florov's highly sculptural, Freehand-inspired shaping style is represented by this striking Volcano. While this piece maintains the traditional Volcano's broad, ridgeline-wrapped base and dramatically tapered bowl, its heel is aggressively lifted, with its aft side positioned under the transition. This alteration lends the composition a dynamic silhouette, with the bowl's base surging forward and the rim cresting toward the shank-and-stem arrangement. The shank and stem balance the bowl and take on a striking verticality, with the stem possessing a gentle downturn at its bit for a comfortable smoking posture. A warm smooth finish dresses the stummel and highlights healthy flame grain across the bowl's flanks, while five knuckles of bamboo adorn the shank and add a touch of organic flair to the shape.
