Musico: Sandblasted Rhodesian with Silver (Floodlight) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 002-008-0875
This sleek and lightweight Rhodesian from Musicò exemplifies the Italian marque's traditional style. A plump bowl with the Rhodesian's characteristically tapered rim stands on a rounded heel, its walls expanding to a high-set waist marked with a soft ridgeline. A wide transition pairs the bowl to a short, sleekly tapering shank, the shank paired to a bent vulcanite stem at a domed silver military mount that makes for easy cleaning and disassembly. Primed for easy jaw-hanging or clenching, this lightweight pipe is dressed in a crisp, inky sandblast that reveals handsome grain throughout, its dark stain richly contrasted by the silver mount.
In 1990, two notable sons of the pipe world joined together and opened up a shop together. Those two were Pablo Becker and Massimo Musicò, the sons of Fritz Becker and Giorgio Musicò, respectively, and two highly respected individuals within Italy's pipe sphere. Starting in 1995, the pair began making pipes together, with Pablo turning the stummels and Massimo crafting silver spigots and bands to pair with the pipes. The duo enjoyed great success during their partnership, but in 2002, Pablo decided to go back to making artisan pipes full-time under the Becker name. Massimo Continued making Musicò pipes, however, and added the Foundation name to subsequent releases, additionally including the rest of his family in the production of the pipes.
