Mario Pascucci worked for decades as a pipe maker for Mastro de Paja before realizing his dream to make pipes under his own name in his hometown of Pesaro, Italy. And make them he does! Each of his pipes are hand made by briars he personally selects. This sandblasted Canadian was made from a superior, top grade, straight grain briar of significant size to enable that gorgeous long shank to be carved. Fit with his signature methacrylate stem adorned with a mirrored’P,’ the pics show the finely skilled sandblast and that magnificent grain on this briar! A true masterpiece from an Italian master. This brand new, unsmoked stunner comes complete with a custom branded pipe sock to protect this investment. As handsome a sitter as it on the hand & lip, this is truly an exceptional pipe from Mario’s workshop. Ready for its inaugural smoke, after a brief break-in period, this will be as good a looker and smoker decades into the future. If you like Canadians, you know the skill and material quality it takes to fashion these stummels. This masterpiece could be yours. If there are particular measurements you seek, inquiries or are just interested in the pipe or my process, please contact me. Your 100% satisfaction is more important than any sale for me. As a committed craftsman, I list better quality pipes regularly in both restored & new condition. You WILL want to keep the pipes I send, as transparent photos & descriptions matter. I offer custom restorations and stem repair as a priority to select clients also, contact me for details.
