Used Pipe Mastro de Paja Smooth Bent Billiard 3B "1 Sun" 1980

The historic allure of 1977. Produced in the very first years of Mastro de Paja's founding, this pipe represents the roots of Pesaro's glorious artisan school. Collectors know well that seasoned pipes from this era possess inestimable added value: the briar, having rested, breathed, and worked for almost fifty years, has now lost all residual moisture and tannins, guaranteeing smokes of a sweetness and roundness that new wood cannot match.

Bent Billiard Shape: the perfect balance. The pipe sports the Bent Billiard shape, a timeless classic. The elegant curve of the shank and mouthpiece offers extraordinary balance, allowing the pipe to be held comfortably between the teeth without straining the jaw. The smooth, light finish has been polished over the years by previous owners, developing a warm patina that enhances the wood's dense natural grain.

The excellence of the "1 Sun" 3A. The superb quality of this block is certified by the 3A stamp and the prestigious "1 Sun ☀︎" grade. At Mastro de Paja, the Sun symbol is the guarantee mark reserved exclusively for briars characterized by superior grain and aesthetic perfection. As a used (seasoned) pipe, it has been preserved in excellent condition and features its original black mouthpiece, ready to provide new and satisfying slow smoking sessions.
