Ser Jacopo: Rusticated Bent Dublin (R1) (A) (Maxima) Tobacco Pipe

Known for pioneering the Pesaro style of pipe making, Giancarlo Guidi founded Ser Jacopo in 1982. Since then, the Italian marque has made a name for itself with its fantastical, imaginative interpretations of classic pipe conventions. This "Maxima" stamped bent Dublin from Ser Jacopo pairs crisp linework with winding curves for a lively, elegant rendition of the classic shape. A towering, forward-urging bowl stands at the fore, its figure formed by thick walls rising from the sweeping heel and flaring high toward the undulating rim, framing an exceptionally deep chamber within. From a seamless transition, a crisp diamond shank curves sharply upward to meet an arcing tapered stem, the pair promoting comfortable jaw hanging. The stummel wears a rugged, hickory-hued rustication, with the rim and ridgelines adorned with fine perforations.
