Castello Sea Rock G, Slightly Bent Rhodesian Estate Briar Pipe, Italian Estates [SOLD OUT]

Out of stock

Description

Founded in 1947 by Carlo Scotti, Castello quickly became known for producing some of the finest smoking pipes in the world. Over the years, the people involved in making Castello pipes has changed – such as Luigi Radice and Sergio Ascorti, who developed their skills in the Cantu workshop before leaving to start Caminetto, or the handing of the reigns of the company to Francisco ‘Kino’ Coppo after Scotti’s passing – but the superlative quality of Castello pipes has not. It is not without reason that Castello is known as ‘the Italian Dunhill.’

This pipe belongs to Castello’s ‘Sea Rock’ line, possibly most famous line the brand offers. I’ve said it before, but nobody does rustication quite like the Italians, and the Sea Rock style of craggy, granular, marine-inspired finishing has been emulated and reinterpreted by many admirers.
