Rossi: Sitting (8344) (6mm) Tobacco Pipe

A squat rendition of the classic Brandy, Rossi's "8344" features a voluptuous bowl marked by a steady taper toward the rim and an arrow straight saddle stem behind the burly bowl. Its chamber is comparable to a Pot's, being more shallow and broad than what is typically associated with the Brandy shape. It's a full-bodied piece that conforms well to wrapped fingers and offers a traditional shape for lovers of timeless shape-chart standards.

Rossi's Sitting series revolves around practicality, offering shapes that are designed to sit stably on flat surfaces — with flattened panels along either the bowl's heel or shank's underside. The series is also characterized by a dark-stained rustication, similar to the Italian marque's Lucca and Vittoria lines, which provides a stimulating tactile experience in hand and should disguise any handling marks that might accumulate over time. Whether you're looking for a new desk pipe or a versatile briar that can handle your lifestyle, Rossi's Sitting pipes are some of the most pragmatic and efficient smoking instruments on the market.

Note: While all of our other pipes are photographed individually, these are not, and you may expect some reasonable cosmetic variation between the example we've photographed and the pipe you've received.
