Bold geometric lines, balanced proportions and an elegant black finish define this Proxima Sandblasted Bulldog, a distinctive interpretation of one of the most recognizable shapes in traditional pipe making. Crafted from briar sourced from Mimmo Romeo in 2025, it features an angular, carefully shaped bowl, a slender shank and a gently curved black mouthpiece.

The bowl's distinctive construction gives the pipe its unmistakable character. Its upper section tapers towards the opening, while the lower section features sharply defined contours and a stable base. A circumferential groove separates the two sections, highlighting the classic geometry of the Bulldog shape. Thanks to its Stand-Up design, the pipe can also rest upright on a flat surface without requiring a separate stand.

The black sandblasted finish extends across the bowl and along the shank, revealing a textured surface with subtle ridges and flowing patterns. The deep, uniform colour emphasizes the bowl's angular profile and gives the pipe a restrained, contemporary appearance. A glossy black methacrylate mouthpiece provides an attractive contrast to the textured briar while preserving the overall simplicity of the design.

With a bowl depth of 42 mm, this Proxima Bulldog Stand-Up combines a traditional silhouette with a distinctive textured finish. An appealing handcrafted sandblasted briar pipe for enthusiasts who appreciate structured shapes, understated detailing and the convenience of a self-standing design.
