Romeo - n. 172
A lesson in pure form, this Billiard-shaped handmade briar pipe by Fabrizio Romeo is presented with a clean, essential design — direct and free from ornamentation. The perfectly cylindrical bowl and elongated shank follow the geometry of the classic English Billiard, here interpreted with Italian sensitivity for proportion and subtle detail.
The briar, classified in Group C, features a regular, well-defined flame grain brought to life by a warm, transparent finish that shifts between light copper and honey tones. The slightly flattened base allows the pipe to stand on its own — a practical touch that adds versatility without interrupting the minimalist line, making it a discreet yet elegant Stand-Up pipe.
The tapered acrylic stem, with smoky tones from pearl grey to deep black, adds a subtle contemporary flair while maintaining visual cohesion. The absence of metallic accents keeps the look unified and refined. Lightweight, comfortable and well-balanced, this pipe is perfect for everyday use without sacrificing character.
A solid, understated handmade Billiard pipe that embodies tradition with quiet confidence — crafted with care, and made to be used.
