MOLINA 3H

Italia

The Molina name is relatively new in the pipe-smoking community; the brand has been around since 2004. However, as we can see from the shape, the materials, and the skilful adaptation of the straight grain, today’s pipe is not the work of a novice nor a cheap basket pipe, but a thoroughly respectable creation of a higher calibre. In fact, Molina is the heir to a famous Italian tradition, established by the giant Rossi factory and carried on by new owners following the factory’s closure in 1985.

The pipe has been smoked very little and is well preserved; we have not touched the finish despite minor scratches and dents. There is a barely noticeable darkening on the rim.
