Castello Trademark Estate Pipe Carlo Scotti period (1953)

Description: Castello Trademark Estate Pipe Carlo Scotti period (1953) Aptly translating to "Castle" from Italian, Castello has embodied a regal reputation of stalwart quality standards since its founding by Carlo Scotti in 1947. Each pipe is individually shaped by a small team of artisans in Cantù, Italy, before being fitted to hand-cut acrylic mouthpieces, and it's this bespoke craftsmanship that has helped define Italian pipe design as a whole. Castello's reimagining of classic English and French shapes ushered in a new style of pipe design unique and endemic to Italy. In the decades since, this aesthetic has been called "Italian neoclassic" and typically consists of traditional pipe designs whose proportions have been dramatized and specific elements exaggerated. Castello pioneered this particular aesthetic approach alongside a range of stylish finishes, from the Sea Rock Briar rustication and Old Antiquari sandblast to the smooth Trademark, "Castello," and Collection series. With such a longstanding pedigree, it's impressive that much of Castello's shaping and stamping remains as it did decades ago, ensuring strong consistency between pipes fashioned decades apart but sometimes causing difficulty when discerning the date of production. Some pipes, however, feature a number stamp inside of the Castello logo to mark the year of production since 1947. So this rendition is a handmade pipe by Carlo Scotti form 1952 (number 5 on the stem). Enter the Castello legend !
