    Description

    La Scala UNSMOKED OVERSIZED Lovat/ 360 Flame Grain/ Handmade Italy
    Here’s an unsmoked extra-large handmade in Italy Lovat shaped pipe that awaits its maiden voyage. And with desirable flame grain on all flanks and a heel awash in a sea of birds-eye end grain, a sweet smoking voyage it will be. The pipe houses a chamber 7/8
    th
    inches in diameter and 1 – ¾ inches deep. Draft hole is dead center flush with the bottom of the chamber. Pipe has a beautiful, fully unrestricted draw. The tenon to mortise union is sound, snug and flush. Pipe does not accept a filter. Pipe weighs
    1. 5 ounces (42 grams)
    No fills. No handling marks. Pipe passes a cleaner with ease.
    Regarding graining, the well-respected authority on the subject, Carl Ehwa, in his landmark book, Pipes & Tobaccos, writes:
    “When selecting briar pipes, quality of wood and workmanship and the type of graining are the prime considerations. Pipes made of dense, straight grain wood …
    have a tendency to absorb moisture much more slowly, which means they will smoke more sweetly and need to be rested less often. The bird's–eye, or end grain at the bottom of the bowl of a straight grain pipe absorbs moisture more quickly than other grains. Yet, because of its position, it allows the moisture to drain away from the tobacco and the channel, thus keeping the smoke dry.” ~ Pg 128
