Roma Smooth Straight Apple Briar Pipe, Unsmoked

Description

I’m not entirely sure who makes Roma pipes, but my research appears to point to them being seconds produced by the many pipe factories in Italy. By ‘seconds’ I of course mean pipes that have minor, superficial imperfections that meant the pipe did not meet the exceedingly high visual standards of Italy’s great makers.

I don’t see anything wrong with this one myself. I could be incorrect about its manufacture, perhaps. It’s a nice, simple bent billiard in a light, natural stain, which accentuates a nice patch of bird’s-eye grain on its right flank.

The pipe is also completely unsmoked.
