SMOOTH UKULELE SKOMING PIPE KIT
Few pipe carvers do such wonderful Eskimo shape in the fantastic kit as does Marco Cascia. Here, the whole pipe's structure express marvelously stretched and broadened form, as if the artisan makes it on purpose to create such a beautiful pipe. Consequently, the composition appears both shape of Eskimo or Ukulele in a flexible manner. With the great attention to the dynamic shape of the pipe, finish, stability, and unique form of the pipe we can say this concept by Italian artisan Cascia is very remarkable. Beautiful bird eye finish of the briar at the Foot adds a great value on this item.
This magnificent pipe kit is well designed, light and exhibits the dynamic structure in a flexible way. The pipe stand and tamper are made of Olive Wood with remarkable texture and color. The stand is heavy and make a very stable stand for the pipe to place. It has four stand points; two for pipe and two for tamper. This stunning kit can be highly appreciated by the smokers who like the briar-Olive Wood combination.
About the Artist
Marco Cascia was born in Italy. His passion for the smoking pipes was founded about 27 yeas ago at Florida and with the age of 9. Later on he carved his first pipe (for his personal use) with Bamboo. Finally his great interest and passion for smoking pipe bring him into the way of briar carving. Since that time he was tried to invent and carve different style of pipes. During his life he has always continued to design and invent new shapes and types of smoking pipes.
He is always looking for new techniques to get even better results. He carves different shapes of pipes; each pipe however has its own unique character, which makes it different from the others. His smoking pipe production is low and around 50 pipes per year because he mostly put his great attention on what he carves. His pipes are charming, masterfully carved and perfectly balanced. In the case of material he is using the old Italian briar root, Olive wood, ebonite and sometimes cumberland for the mouthpiece.
