Sandblasted Bent Brandy Tobacco Pipe

On the larger end of Wojtek Pastuch's shaping spectrum, this bent Brandy offers plenty of briar around both bowl and shank, making for quite the muscular, firm-bodied feel in hand. While many of his pieces have shown an undeniable Danish influence, this piece turns the tables slightly — a higher-set waistline gives a more substantial plumpness all around, while the finish presents a rugged, deep sandblast that would be more aligned with the Italian style than anything else. This unique mixture of styles is part of what makes Wojtek Pastuch stand out, of course, particularly when combined with his skill for execution, and eye for detail.
