Sandblasted Acorn with Silver (Floodlight Special) Tobacco Pipe

Though Musico is an Italian marque, their pipes tend to hew closer to the Anglo-French carving style, though occasionally deviating with small, whimsical touches here and there. With its balanced build and petite proportions, this Acorn is a fitting example of Musico's slightly reserved style.

Measuring a little over 4.5 inches in length, this piece verges closely on Nosewarmer territory, making it a conveniently compact offering well-suited for on-the-go smoking. The pert, high-waisted bowl demonstrates a subtle forward cant that lends the composition a touch of dynamism, while the hank-and-stem arrangement lies low out back, its posture sleek and straight. Dressed in a craggy, earthy sandblast the stummel offers a wealth of tactile appeal and adds a touch of ruggedness to the otherwise sleek form. A silver military mount introduces a subtle dose of flash to the composition and, with the push-style stem, makes for easy disassembly and cleaning.
