More than large enough to qualify as a Greatline, the pipe is also in very good condition. Yes, there is carbon residue on the inner rim of the chamber, but no wear is evident and the stem is in excellent condition with no marks on it. Typical of Castello construction, the draw is wide-open and I'm sure if I tried, it would pass the cleaner test. I will not try, so don't ask me. The blast reveals both ring grain and lots of straight grain. It's a fairly old piece, with Carlo Scotti's imprint on the shank bottom and a "C 22" whatever that means.
6" long, bowl 2.7" tall. Weight: 3 oz., 86 grams.
