Calibano (Mastro de Paja) 107 D C2 Smooth Bent Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked Calibano (Mastro de Paja) 107 D C2 Smooth Bent Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked
I have seen many references to Calibano pipes as a Mastro de Paja “second,” and while they were made by Mastro de Paja, to call them “seconds” is not entirely accurate. Instead, Calibano was a Mastro de Paja sub brand, and specifically one through which Mastro de Paja offered something more akin to a factory pipe. In other words, while just about every Mastro de Paja pipe is handmade in the Italian workshop tradition, with the typical result being that each has been unique, Calibano pipes were made with the use of fraising machines and, as such, were offered in a roster of set shapes and finishes. It’s a little like Savinelli’s establishment of the Autograph workshop, but in reverse; instead of starting out a factory make and branching out into freehand pipes, Calibano was a case of a freehand pipe workshop branching out into factory briars.
In the case of this one, it’s a decidedly muscular take on the traditional bent billiard, not unlike those of midcentury England, combined with Calibano’s more Italian, fiery, red “C2” finish.
This pipe is completely unsmoked, with an original bowl coating. Some very slight scratches on the bowl, though nothing 6.2″ / 157.4mm
