Vauen: Nana Sandblasted (508) (9mm) Tobacco Pipe

Vauen's Nana series presents a selection of stylish shapes in one of two distinctive versions — either a crisp, dark sandblast or a silky smooth, chestnut finish. For the sandblasted pipes, Vauen has tastefully contrasted the textured stummel with a smoothly polished rim and dressed the totality of the briar in a jet-black stain to harmonize with the mouthpiece. For further visual flair, each pipe in the series is accented with a gleaming metallic band inspired by pixel-cut gemstones. Presented here is the German marque's sinuous "08" Rhodesian, a handsome shape defined by a tall, brawny bowl and a fluidly bent shank-and-stem arrangement.

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.
