BEN WADE Hand Model Roma

England

This English-made Ben Wade Hand Model pipe is a unique and surprisingly effective piece. Its simple shape beautifully accents the fantastic birdseye grain on the left side of the bowl. The nomenclature corresponds to the Lane era times, but the stamping “ROMA” on the pipe is a bit unusual. Your thought regarding this would be appreciated.
