Ser Jacopo: Rusticated Bent Dublin Churchwarden (R1) (B) Tobacco Pipe

It's no secret that Churchwarden-stemmed pipes are some of the most comfortable and lively shapes in all of pipedom. Veteran pipe smokers always encourage having at least one, and you'd be hard-pressed to find one as striking and richly detailed as this bent Dublin. The bowl flares from its rounded heel to its broad rim, while the shank kicks high away from the transition and marries the long, arcing mouthpiece. It's dressed in an earthy rustication, providing ample texture for the fingers to explore, save for the rim and nomenclature panel, which are left smooth and stained a blonde color for contrast. A metallic band graces the transition and provides further visual appeal.
