Mastro Geppetto Smooth Panel Apple Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked

Out of stock

Description

Mastro Geppetto pipes are made by the Italian workshop brand Ser Jacopo. One could call them Ser Jacopo’s series of ‘affordable’ pipes, and while this would be correct purely from the standpoint of price, it wouldn’t be entirely fair to them in other regards. Geppetto pipes are hand made from the same high-grade briar as Ser Jacopo pipes, but the former do not use the plateau cuts that the latter does, which are more expensive; Geppetto pipes also tend to be simpler shapes, meaning they do not require the use of the highly technical flexible drilling machinery that Ser Jacopo’s wilder shapes do.

There is something particularly charming about this Mastro Geppetto. Part of that is the way it emulates the French panel shapes that were once the epitome of high fashion in pipe design, back during the very birth of briar. Though not as common anymore, the designs are nonetheless, to my mind, timeless.
