Took delivery of this kk Sea Rock today
I wouldn't call it a "mini," but it's nice and small, 31g
Will be dedicated to Haunted Bookshop, and have some from '17 to get her started with
I like that the top is smooth and (pretty much) in line with the stem/shank, as opposed to canted forward perpendicular with the bowl axis

BenMN,
Beautiful pipe!
There is something special about Castellos.

Very nice pipe! I saw that one and it caught my eye too, looks like a nice light easy smoker.
Great looking pipe Ben. A little Haunted Bookshop sounds perfect about now.
Just got in a new to me Castello searock shape 48. I can't find much on this shape. If it weren't -10 i'd take it for a spin.
I added a 55 KK collection Occhio di Pernice to my white stem Castello quiver. The birdseye is mesmerizing and deep.
Lovely little collection you've got going
Fresh off the van from Corti
Old Antiquari kkkk 11
Small for shape Sea Rock kk 12
I’ll have to direct my pipe money to tobacco now with the STG nonsense. Too many blends I enjoy on the chopping block

Corti day for me too, got a Sea Rock 44 KK
Thanks Paul. Castello caught my eye when I first starting smoking a decade ago. Was never much for Britwoods or Danish pipes. I started with cobs and American drugstore brands and smoked them for years. Now I enjoy Petes and Italian makes the most for briar. This thread pushed me over the edge on Castello

Do you have pics of your other 11s? That's my fav shape - got an old antiquari, sea rock, and le dune so far. hoping for a nice aristocratica sometime.Thanks Paul.

amazing. is that first one the virgin finish or is that the old antiquary brown? that's an amazing blast.
and thanks for the compliment on my pipe
hard to say, Maxim listed it as natural but it's not stamped Natural Vergin. It is darkening quicklyamazing. is that first one the virgin finish or is that the old antiquary brown? that's an amazing blast.

Castello 'Old Antiquari' Shape # 11 (KKKK) # 508
This deep sandblast natural rare shape # 11 Brandy Brucianaso Castello. It shows its roots through the bowl with its definitive full bent origins. Ever so slight truncation of the bowl and its shorted shank evolve it to be a neo-classic "shape # 11". Only Castello could have so wonderfully...

there's some discussion on vergin pipes a few pages back, seems most are sea rock but who knows
It's looking great. I've seen some virgin type finishes that end up being kinda dirty but yours is coming in very nicelyhard to say, Maxim listed it as natural but it's not stamped Natural Vergin. It is darkening quickly

@autumnfog, thanks! They definitely have "it" (most of the time )
Thanks @PiperdownCan ! I've had more than a few I've been eyeing and considering. Then.. gone. Then, they crop up here
Thanks @PapaCoolDown ! Haunted Bookshop is a great blend for sure.
*haven't smoked this yet, maybe this weekend...
