Smooth light brown Amorelli pipe, classic straight Dublin model with black methacrylate mouthpiece. Busbee rating: 2 stars. This pipe is very elegant and refined, with a classic design that never goes out of style. Its clean, simple lines give it great visual impact. Its classic style makes it timeless, a model that will never go out of fashion. The bowl has a slightly wavy rim that gives the pipe a sense of movement. The beautiful flaming is traditional in style, with a regular and decidedly dense grain over almost the entire head. The pipe is medium/large in size and stands out for its more than capable bowl, which provides excellent smokeability in any situation. Its lightness makes it ideal for smoking while walking or sitting comfortably in an armchair. The bowl has thick walls that never make your hands too hot. The Lisce series are pipes that have no defects and feature a regular and dense grain as the number of asterisks increases. This is a Busbee, which features a fine U-shaped briar insert on the mouthpiece, making it unique. This process is very difficult but certainly effective, giving it a superior elegance. It is these details that highlight the craftsmanship of Totò Amorelli, who is considered one of the most skilled Italian pipe makers.
Salvatore Amorelli was a goldsmith by profession, and this can be seen in the creativity of his designs. Even the most inveterate smokers have to make an effort before using Amorelli pipes, as they usually give the impression of being jewellery rather than smoking implements. His distinctive mark, common to all his pipes, is the 18-carat gold bar applied to the stem and mouthpiece, which must be aligned to perfectly join the two elements. Amorelli started producing pipes in 1982 out of passion, always using the best part of the famous Sicilian briar, known for its lightness and porosity. Before Amorelli and his nine collaborators work on the rough cuts, they are seasoned in the Sicilian open air for five years to allow for slow drying. To document the perfection of the wood even inside the bowl, Salvatore Amorelli does not brush on charcoal powder. The quality of the raw material and excellent workmanship guarantee smoking pleasure at a surprisingly affordable price.
