Guess The Pipe Maker (January 2020)...

[alaskanpiper]

Alright Folks!

A Happy new year to all! I'll get this month's thread kicked off with a new (to me) acquisition. Never been a big fan of partial rustications, but this big fat walled dublin just spoke to me for some reason. Maybe it was the beautiful smooth rim, or just the general fatness. Might be an easy one for those who have been shopping lately and happened to see it. Either way, guess away, and let's get this kicked off for January!

As usual, the winner posts a pipe of their own!

Cheers!

Poul Winslow?

 

[alaskanpiper]

Nope. I can see how that would make sense though, the rustication and stain are very winslow-esque. Good guess!

I’ve got no idea, but it seems to have Italian proportions to me. I’ll have a stab: Caminetto?

 

[alaskanpiper]

No sir.

Wild ass guess based on the rusticated bowl/smooth stem: Mario Grandi?

Edit: Shank, not "stem".

 

[alaskanpiper]

Nope

 

[shanez]

See Jacopo?

 

[alaskanpiper]

Nope. Not Italian.

A wild guess...Sean Reum?

 

[alaskanpiper]

Nerp.

I like the pipe. I don't know...I need a hint.
