Castello Pipe Shape 10 Nose Burner 'Castello' KK Rim Wavy

Castello "Castello" KK Pipe - Shape 10 (Nose Burner) - Wavy Rim - Smooth

Product Description

A compact jewel: the "Brucianaso" in evening dress.

This Castello from the "Castello" series (the name reserved for the highest-quality smooth-bore pipes) elevates the concept of the "Bruciaso" pipe to a work of art. The Shape 10 is renowned for its compactness: the extremely short shank reduces the leverage on the jaw, making the pipe incredibly light between the teeth and perfect for carrying anywhere.

What makes this piece unique is its Wavy Rim : the top edge of the bowl is not cut flat, but has been sculpted with a slight artistic curve that follows the grain of the briar. This detail, combined with the smooth, warm-toned finish, highlights a dense flame grain on the sides that explodes into a wonderful bird's eye on the rim and bottom.

Main Features:

• "Castello" Series: A smooth, natural finish that leaves the wood "naked," allowing you to admire its purity. With time and repeated smoking, the briar will acquire even more intense and distinctive tones.

• Shape 10 (Nose Warmer): Ultra-compact "stubby" design. Ideal for those seeking practicality without sacrificing a good-capacity burner (KK grade).

• "Wavy Rim" Detail: A manual edge processing that breaks the rigidity of classic shapes, giving softness and elegance to the piece.

• Grade KK: Perfect medium size. Offers an excellent compromise between long-lasting smoke and portability.

• Flat Bottom (Sitter): The base of the bowl is designed to allow the pipe to stand on its own, making it very convenient for resting it during breaks.

Why choose it: For the rarity of its workmanship. Finding a Shape 10 with a carved rim and such a flamed briar is a special occasion. It's the ultimate pipe for the gentleman who loves small, precious, and functional objects.
