Roma Smooth Straight Apple Briar Pipe, Unsmoked

About this pipe:

I’m not entirely sure who makes Roma pipes, but my research appears to point to them being seconds produced by the many pipe factories in Italy. By ‘seconds’ I of course mean pipes that have minor, superficial imperfections that meant the pipe did not meet the exceedingly high visual standards of Italy’s great makers.

I don’t see anything wrong with this one myself. I could be incorrect about its manufacture, perhaps. It’s a nice, simple bent billiard in a light, natural stain, which accentuates a nice patch of bird’s-eye grain on its right flank.

The pipe is also completely unsmoked.
