MICOLI DEEP RUSTICATED ROOT BRIAR FREEHAND OOM PAUL PIPE

Description: It sports a beautifully formed Egg shaped bowl with perfect dual taper and a rounded rim up top opening to a cavernous chamber. This is one of those shapes where I don't know if you can even say it has a "transition" being that the shank is 80% attached and just about full bent! The original vulcanite stem is awesome with fishtail bit and craggy rustication on it as well. Finish is Root Briar with the left side showing remarkable swirling birdseye and the right mostly Micoli's signature deep rustication that is not only visually extraordinary but the texture in hand phenomenal! Near mint, a special offering from Micoli not to be missed! MICOLI OOM PAUL Dimensions (approximate): 5 3/4" Long, 2 3/8" Tall, 3/4" Chamber Width, 1 7/8" Chamber Depth, Weight: 62g Condition: Other than some minor finish scratches this pipe is near mint! Micoli or "Mic" as he is called by family and friends, has acquired the reputation of being one of the best American pipe makers. He is appreciated by the most prominent of collectors. Educated in the arts, He started this adventure in 1968. His craftsmanship and artistry were dedicated to over twenty years of full time pipe making, with no two alike. In the last twenty years plus he has been partially retired and limits carving to a few pipes a month. He has continued sculpting animals and other subjects from brair and other rare woods. Micoli is now 72 years old. Burns / Micoli also made the E. Oslo pipes. These can be considered his entry-level pipes as he did not carve these from scratch but rather purchased run-of-the-mill standard shapes from Italian and English pipe makers, such as Savinelli and Comoy's, and dremeled his signature magic on them.
