Sandblasted Billiard with Mammoth Tobacco Pipe

Among Brazil's burgeoning collective of young artisan carvers, Emanuel Emiliano crafts handmade pipes that reference and honor tradition while also expressing his own creative style through distinctive shapes and tasteful accents. Artistry and practicality combine in this Billiard by Emiliano: Barely over five inches in length, it's a prime candidate for everyday smoking and travel alike. It retains a cylindrical nature through the shank and bowl, belying its compact size and emphasizing a creased transition. A smooth rim punctuates the stummel's dark sandblast, and the stem base is decorated with a visually arresting accent of mammoth, offering vibrant splashes of blue and cream against the rest of the piece's relatively reserved palette.
