What fabulous grain and shaping. Hope you love it, and not being Castello, I'm sure you got it at a much more reasonable price. Castello-wise add another 2 or 3 hundred.

thank you all.. @didimauw , never smoked, it is from the year 2000 or so, from a private collector, I also bought a Don Carlos 3 notes Fiammatta from the year 1995, never smoked,. when Bruto Sordini still put the white band on the mouthpiece. Also brand new and unused, and I also bought some other new ones from that time, he collected pipes but he smoked only a few of them.

I will make another thread with it in a couple of days, when I get them both.

Yesterday, after asking Bruto, I also decided to ask Radice for this pipe, and I got another big surprise, it is from 1997/98 and the current value of 1000 € approx. 1200 USD, as they very kindly tell me.

"GOOD MORNING MR . MARTINEZ CONGRATULATIONS FOR THE PIPE
IS A PIPE BEFORE THE YEAR 2000 I THINK 1997 / 1998 COLLECT 3 WAS THE HIGHEST GRADE OF BRANDING
CURRENTLY A PIPE WITH THOSE CHARACTERISTICS WOULD COST ABOUT 1000 €.

BEST REGARDS

MARZIO RADICE"

So, I bought it for less than the third part, new and unused and now I have an exceptional pipe in the collection...
