Sandblasted Strawberry Wood Bulldog (Shell) (2A) Tobacco Pipe

One craggy and earthy number, this squat Bulldog from Giacomo Penzo showcases not only his affinity for modern renditions of classic shapes but his skill with alternative mediums as well. Crafted from strawberry wood, this sandblasted number features a range of wild, undulating rings dancing across its low-slung form, adding a rugged sense of organic whimsy to the composition overall — complemented in turn by the extra dark stain it wears, as well as the striking mouthpiece of deep olive and jet-black brindled vulcanite.
