Caught My Eye

Saw this on Briar Blues tonight. Been looking for a smaller Castello for lunting, but it would eat all my Christmas money. Thoughts?
Castello Sea Rock

I think it's a lovely pipe.

That is a gorgeous pipe. It almost looks like an upside down drip wax pipe. Go for it.

Oh, now that is interesting. Love how the rustication meets the smooth.

It looks hungry. It would be cruel not to feed it.

For just the cost of a cup of coffee a day you can help feed this lonely Castello!

I didn't know Castello did partial rustications. If that was one of their big egg sitters, I'd grab it. Love that look.

Enablers-R-Us

Yes sir...that's what we're here for.

That's a great face Embers, but the expression looks more like he's saying, "Oh shit, he's going to load me up with Captain Black Grape!"

CE, Castello refers to the partially rusticated finish as the "Pi Option" and it adds a small amount to the cost. They are fairly common. That one's a looker!

 

[Chasing Embers]

They are fairly common.

Learned something new. If I find a 293 egg like that, it's going to be hard to say no.

 

[pianopuffer]

Yep, thanks for the nudge. It's coming my way today.

 

[jdunbar]

That poor hungry pipe was my very first laugh of the day! Thank you!! :lol:

PianoPuffer, please post photos of your Castello when it arrives.
I have not seen one with that particular finish before.

Here you go. Finally got around to getting a few pics last night.
