SER JACOPO R1

SER JACOPO R1

Italy

This may not be the most valuable Ser Jacopo pipe we have ever showcased, but its allure lies in its convenient and comfortable shape, masterful rustication, and, of course, the prestigious name it bears. Judging by the dotted logo on the mouthpiece, it belongs to the period between 1983 and 1997, an “early” Ser Jacopo meticulously carved by the skilled hands of Giancarlo Guidi in Pesaro, Italy, shortly after parting ways with Mastro de Paja. The pipe remains in a personal collection.

Pipe markings “PER ASPERA \ AD ASTRA”, “Ser Jacopo”, “FATTA A MANO \ In ITALIA”, “(R1)”
Length 15.1 cm (5.94″)
Bowl Height 4.7 cm (1.85″)
Outside Diameter 5.0 cm (1.97″)
Chamber Diameter 2.1 cm (0.83″)
Chamber Depth 3.9 cm (1.54″)
Weight 69 gr.
Briar, acrylic stem (carefully patched near the button – the trace is visible in good light), no filter.

The pipe was accurately smoked, it has been thoroughly cleaned, polished, sanitized and now is ready for a new life.

THE PIPE IS NOT FOR SALE
