Show Off Your Castello Pipes Here!

[PaulRVA]

Just arrived in the post today. I have to thank @PaulRVA for..........doing his best to enable my PAD on this one. Woke to messages in my in box with screen shots and words to the effect "you got have this one, put this in the collection, this ones for you mate". Be wary of this man he's a certified enabler of the highest order

Anyways its a #33 and it can go with the other 20 odd that are floating around here.

Whoever Blasted that pipe should’ve kept it for themselves as it really ended up just darn nice.
The stem color really sets it off too. Look at the rings, grain & shank blasting.

The white stem is so shocking to the eye, would've preferred a white band and a classic black stem.

Fresh from the post! I love it, I can see why @VDL_Piper has a bunch of these puppies.

They did a good job Paul, nice in the hand too.

White stems aren't for everyone but when you're collector and you didn't have one and a superbly blasted pipe with a white stem comes up you have to take it, might be years before I see another if at all.

And so the herd multiplies
Enjoy

It does mate, two more in the pipe line too I should have purchased shares in this damn shop!

This white stem is very sexy!

On this pipe I do agree with you, doesn't always work but here it does.

I’d say very likely. Both of those are stunners and being Fume’s on top of it just makes it even better.

Wait until you smoke it! Easy draw, decent chamber and visual and tactile delight. Enjoy that beauty and it will serve you a lifetime.

Right you are. By coincidence, right now I'm smoking a Castello I bought in 1964.

I broke it in with some Gaslight and it’s a great shape. Very comfortable clench despite its weight thanks to the wide bit and short length, love it!

I think these Old Sea Rocks are the only Sea Rocks I like. I wish they'd do them in a reverse fume.

What's the spec on these guys?

I wasn’t quick enough to snap a shot of the specs but it’s about 136mm long and 55 grams. Corti has a couple of beauties just posted as well.

I got a few I would like to show starting with a Castello Sea Rock KK Stubby Canadian. Pipe length is 11 cm Chamber width is 2.25 cm Depth is 3.5 cm. For your amusement.

 

[Cigar City Piper]

Here's another Castello "Castello" collection KKK partially rusticated 14.5 cm long, chamber width 2.3 cm and depth is 3.5 cm. Definitely one of my favored smokers.

They do and they are very easy on the eye.
