This refined take on the classic Apple shape features a deep sandblasted finish that brings out the natural complexity of the briar grain, giving the surface a rich and tactile presence. Weighing just 34 grams, with a perfectly balanced Stand-Up design, this pipe offers a harmonious blend of practicality and elegance. The warm, earthy palette—ranging from deep brown to hints of copper—enhances the bowl’s rounded silhouette, while the black ebonite stem, paired with a delicately shaped shank and subtle matching ring, completes the piece with understated sophistication. Crafted by the skilled hands of Vitale Piero, an Italian artisan with a well-established international reputation, this pipe embodies the beauty of simplicity and the value of true handmade craftsmanship—ideal for daily use, yet worthy of any fine collection.
