DON CARLOS UNSMOKED "MELOS" RUSTICATED POT W/GOLD TONE & STERLING ESTATE PIPE

Description

Bruto Sordini named this limited edition series after the Greek island of Milos where the Venus de Milo was found, and you can certainly see the heavenly inspiration here! A gorgeous rusticated Pot, it offers a robust cylindrical bowl that is profoundly Mediterranean offering a lovely smooth rounded rim leading to a generous chamber. Just below the smooth rim is a single bead while at the base it rounds out instead of being more flat like a traditional pot and then transitions smoothly to a sturdy round shank adorned with a brilliant Sterling Silver "hammered" band with Don Carlos logo while just above we find a gold tone ornate mount. The crisp black acrylic stem is not army mount but rather push tenon and features a wide slight fishtail bit and inlaid silver musical note. The finish is a rich amber while the rustication is ultra craggy and reminds me much of a Castello Old Antiquari. Still unsmoked, this limited edition Don Carlos is not to be missed!
