Partially Sandblasted Natural Bulldog (B) Tobacco Pipe

For those who love natural finishes, this Il Duca Bulldog is a stunner. Highlighting by contrast that natural sandblasted bowl is an elegant, smooth band around the waistline, stained a dark mahogany. That element elevates the bowl's character as the rim tapers inward to the tobacco chamber on the side rim. Balancing these visual aspects is the cumberland stem, its dark striations contributing to the elegance of this remarkable piece. A lifting heel offers a Horn-like curvature along the heel for an impression of soft organicism in this otherwise rigidly structured shape.
