Mastro Beraldi Sandblasted Bent Egg Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked [SOLD]

Description

Mastro Beraldi pipes are crafted by the Pierluigi family in Rome, Italy, headed by Aldo Pierluigi. After creating the Pierluigi make in the 1970s, Aldo and his family decided to apply their Italian artisan approach to a new make for American exports. This make was named Mastro Beraldi

There is something really different about this pipe. I’ve classified it as an egg for the sake of simplicity, but that isn’t really accurate, is it? We’re in the wrong kingdom: this isn’t fauna, it’s flora. In other words, the pipe’s organic qualities are closer to plants than animals. The bowl and incline of the stem are more like the morphology of the pitcher plant, with only the application of ornate silver bands breaking with this theme.

This unique pipe is also completely unsmoked, with an original bowl coating.
