Ser Jacopo: Unigena Sandblasted Bent Dublin with Silver (S2) (B) (Maxima Maxima) (9mm) Tobacco Pipe

Since its founding in 1982, Ser Jacopo has become one of the most recognizable and iconic pipe brands in all of Italy. Under the watchful stewardship of founder Giancarlo Guidi, the workshop developed a style that has since come to define the Pesaro shaping aesthetic. Each Ser Jacopo pipe is imbued with a whimsical sense of character that reflects the brand's creativity and playful spirit. This Dublin by Ser Jacopo is a lithe and thoroughly neoclassical take on the classic form, offering a tall bowl bowl that overshadows the comparatively slender shank-and-stem arrangement. As one might expect from its two "Maxima" stamps, this piece boasts some robust measurements, offering over seven inches of length and a bowl over two inches tall. Said bowl houses a capacious chamber within its flared, plateau-crowned frame, ensuring plenty of long, leisurely smoking sessions, which the curvaceous shank-and-stem arrangement will deftly aid. An earthy sandblast dresses the stummel and coaxes out attractive growth rings across the bowl's flanks, while an accent of sterling silver adorns the junction and ties the composition together with a dose of flash.
