About This Pipe
Brazilian carver Luis Lavos discovered a love of woodworking in his grandfather's workshop as a child. Though he later studied graphic arts, his early appreciation for wood never faded, making pipe making a natural pursuit. His talent is on full display in this Bulldog: a muscular design with a wide, full-bodied bowl, a sturdy diamond shank, and a trim, tapered stem. The bowl's generous girth features a firm architectural ridge that separates the tapered rim from the flaring heel, while ridgelines along the shank echo the bowl's structure, adding further geometric flair to the otherwise streamlined form. A crisp, earth-toned sandblast accentuates the briar's grain, the finish's smoky hue beautifully contrasted by a bright and spotty jupati accent.
