Roberto Perez American Silver Tamper, 26g, Pipe Accessories [SOLD OUT]

Out of stock

Description

Every pipe smoker needs a tamper at some point. While some use old nails, Czech-style tools, or even their fingers (which MBSD does not recommend), many pipe smokers prefer to have something that is both sturdy and easy on the eyes – a true combination of function and form.

MBSD is very pleased to be offering tampers which are exactly that, and which are hand-made in America by artisan Roberto Perez. A farmer by trade, Perez is a skilled craftsman who finds joy in creating tampers and other accessories when he has the time. One particularly interesting aspect of Perez’s tampers (as well as his other creations) is that they are all made using reclaimed materials from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Perez makes tampers from antebellum silverware, fin de siècle mother of pearl, Art Deco Bakelite, and all manner of other things from times past.

This particular tamper is made from repurposed Connecticut silver. It has a solid, ergonomic feel, and is just the right balance of not too heavy, and not too light.
