Il Ceppo Pipe Gr. 1 Dark Sandblasted - Bent Tulip with Worked Band

The Pesaro Tradition: Il Ceppo

A masterpiece of formal grace and artisan precision, entirely handmade in Pesaro, the cradle of Italy's great pipe-making tradition. Creations bearing the Il Ceppo signature are celebrated by smokers worldwide for the purity of their lines, the exceptional smoothness of the smoke, and the extraordinary care devoted to ornamental details.

The Sinuous Bent Tulip Shape

This model, classified in Group 1 for its classic proportions and perfect weight balance, features the sophisticated Bent Tulip shape. The silhouette is distinguished by a bowl modeled with a slender line that gently widens towards the top (rim), evoking the delicate opening of a bud. It is a design with great visual impact that ensures exceptional comfort both when held by hand and when resting in the jaw.

The briar is enhanced by a deep and meticulous dark sandblasting, capable of bringing out the wood's splendid three-dimensional texture. This treatment not only bestows a vintage and austere charm but also ensures formidable grip and ideal heat dispersion for a cool smoke. A small, smooth, light panel, left on the bottom of the shank, elegantly accommodates the brand's original hallmarks.

Finely Engraved Silver Ring

The true distinguishing element of this piece is the precious, finely worked silver ring that encircles the end of the shank. The meticulous ornamental engravings on the noble metal create a splendid contrast with the dark surface of the wood, bestowing an exclusive and almost sculptural character on the whole. The design is completed with a comfortable curved black acrylic mouthpiece, marked with the iconic inlaid white "C".
