Radice: Rind Apple with Faux Bamboo Tobacco Pipe

This Apple from Radice boasts a tall bowl that stands at the fore of an arrow-straight shank-and-stem arrangement. The shank here has been carved to a resemble three knuckles of craggy bamboo, with each distinctive node telescoping into one another before giving way to a tapered stem of jet-black acrylic. The aforementioned bowl tapers from its wide heel to its tauter rim, and as it does, it produces a low-set waistline that conforms naturally to the hand. Dressed in the Rind rustication, the stummel offers a wealth of tactile detail for the fingers to explore.
