Scotto Pipes

[woodsroad]

Yesterday evening I had the pleasure to attend the Lehigh Valley Pipe club, and to see some of the pipes made by local carver Juan Pablo Scotto. His son Juan (also an accomplished pipemaker) is a member of our club and brought some of his father's work along with him last night. I thought that you might enjoy seeing some of it:

A couple of those I saw for sale on Ebay. Lovely pipes.

That Rhodesian is a cutie. Love it! Very interesting designs.

It’s really cool that he is showing off his dad’s work. Looks like something to really bond over.

Are the first and last reverse-calabash?

That fatty billiard is sweet.

 

[woodsroad]

Yup.

Only the first pipe is a reversed calabash

That tall Rhodesian looks a little like my recent gift, a Kemperling made in Austria. These Scotto pipes are beautifully finished and tastefully designed. I really like the flashes of color in the bands.

Those are awesome! How do pipes that small smoke? Is a shank/stem that short enough to make a noticeable difference?

I have two Scotto pipes and they smoke as good as they look. They're a great value.

Wow, I love the size of those pipes! Fighting the P.A.D...
I wouldn't be able to smoke it for another 11 months though...
