Mastro Geppetto: Sabbiato Paneled Billiard Tobacco Pipe

While it's certainly not an incredibly large piece, this tall, lengthy Billiard from Mastro Geppetto certainly fits into the Italian school's neoclassic sense of proportions. The relationship between bowl and shank lend the bowl an even greater sense of height, furthered by the steady taper through the shank and stem. Crisp panels surround the bowl's surface, adding further texture to this rustic, sandblasted piece, with each facet framing the briar's natural grain patterns.
