Mastro Grandolfo Handmade in the stunning baroque city of Lecce in Italy. Mastro learned to build smoking pipes from his grandfather. After the Second World War Mastro's grandfather had opened up a Tobacconist and started to build his own pipes and lighters initially using bullet shells left over from the War. At 6 years old Mastro visited his grandfather's workshop and was left fascinated by the sights and smells of the process. His continued passion for pipe making shows in his creations.
Mastro Grandolfo 0025 These stunning pipes are real head-turners. This freehand briar pipe finished in a natural stain and Carnauba wax. The front of the bowl has been left raw showing the natural finish of the briar root. The grain on this is impeccable, with the birds eye grain running from the shank and the perfect straight grain running down the sides. It is finished with and Olivewood shank and Red Cumberland stem with black accented rings.
