I'll second the Savinelli 122. I have it in the Aurelia series, which may not be available, but it is one of their standard shapes.
This is also available in the sub-brand Rossi as an 8122 in their Rossi Sera series for a reasonable $64. The only difference I detect between Savinelli and Rossi pipes are the more elaborate finishes on the Savinelli's, but the smoking characteristics seem to be equally good, and the shapes are essentially the same.

It's pretty polarizing, but I'm partial to a Castello 55. You either love it or hate it.
I happen to be one of the former.

Great recommendation! Only thing, I don't have an extra $800 laying around. What a great looking pipe!
Damn, how can I get this past my wife?!!!
If you don’t mind estates, pots pop up frequently on EBay
For some reason they don’t seem as popular as other shapes, so prices tend lower.
Do have a look at the chamber dimensions.
A lot of “pots” may be pot-shaped, but e cause of thick walls their chambers are of billiard dimension.

I don't mind estates, but I want to get a deal on a used pipe. It seems as if there is not much of a discount these days on estate pipes.
I'd go with an Arley Curtz. It's the only pot shaped pipe that's smoked well for me...so far.
Generally from him or at any Tinder Box shop in Utah. I wish I still had his contact info but I do not.
This is a Cardogan-era Comoy pot which I bought a few years ago as an estate.
It arrived very clean with no ghosting
Nice blast, and very light weight. Drilling spot-on.
Proper pot dimensions
I can’t recall how much I paid for it but I know it was not a lot

Neerup makes some kick ass pipes.
Doug Finlay makes a nice pot. Look at blueroombriars.com/collections/dwf-pipes/products/doug-finlay-pipe-ring-tall-pot-with-nickel
