The blast has uncovered some truly unique and quite intricate grain formations. The symmetry achieved on this piece is also outstanding. The Mastro is indeed The Master of Italian Pipe Making.

Notice the square shank which is smooth polished on the left hand side and underneath, with just a bit of smooth polishing towards the shank face on the topside and right hand side. It is fitted with a shiny black fishtail style acrylic mouthpiece, with some beautiful accent work at it’s shank end, matching the colour tones of the stummel.
