Il Duca - Barone n. 98
Lightweight, elegant, and remarkably refined, this Il Duca pipe by Massimiliano Rimensi offers a sophisticated interpretation of the classic Poker shape, enhanced by a long and beautifully integrated bamboo shank. The overall design develops into a dynamic and harmonious silhouette where every element contributes to a striking visual balance.
The tall, slightly forward-leaning bowl gives the pipe a distinctive personality, while the sandblasted briar highlights the natural grain structure, creating a surface rich in texture and depth. The warm tones of the briar blend naturally with those of the bamboo, whose nodes establish a graceful rhythm leading toward the slender ebonite stem, crafted with the attention to detail that has become a hallmark of Rimensi's work.
With a height of 56 mm and a weight of only 25 grams, this handmade Italian pipe delivers exceptional smoking comfort while maintaining a strong visual presence. The stand-up configuration adds everyday practicality, while the combination of briar and bamboo perfectly showcases Il Duca's ability to unite tradition, artistic creativity, and outstanding craftsmanship.
