'Radice' Volcano (2025) Tobacco Pipe

Almost twenty years before Radice was established, its founder, Luigi Radice, began his journey with briar pipes at the now-iconic Castello workshop. In 1968, Luigi and Giuseppe Ascorti teamed up to create the Caminetto brand but Luigi eventually left and founded Radice in 1980. With the help of his father and sons, Gianluca and Marzio, Luigi created a family business known for their unique spin on neoclassical pipes, as well as their singular accenting and finishing techniques. This Volcano from Radice features the Italian marque's bold neoclassic style, displaying a hearty bowl, jutting heel, and forward-urging proportions. Out back, a slim round shank is fitted to a comfortable acrylic stem. The stummel is dressed in the warm, rich stain of Radice's eponymous finish: revealing a wealth of handsome grain.
