About This Pipe
"The Byronic hero's suffering, isolation, and defiance of authority and conventional morality captured the deflated spirit of a generation who had witnessed the horrors of the French Revolution. But the figure's principal attraction was an irresistible sex-appeal. In the oriental tales, the Byronic hero's passionate devotion to his beloved conveys a religious fervency." - Men and Masculinities by Michael S. Kimmel and Amy Aronson
Well, all fervency aside, this Byron's Favorite certainly does attract attention; the warm glow of its translucent stem, slim brass ring, and a slender, classically shaped dublin bowl make for a composition as colorful as the British lord considered not only a hero of Armenian literature, but also an irredeemable cad who, according to some, was very near to backing into the throne of Greece at the time of his death at the age of only 36, amidst their war for independence from the Ottoman Empire.
