I could immediately see that this was a well crafted, high quality piece, but I was not familiar with the Rover Art line of Ardor pipes (made for generations by the Rovera family in Varese, Italy) so I looked for some online and see that they go for a pretty penny. Hooray for the pipe. This one is in very good condition, with the slightest hint of wear on the inner chamber rim. The stem, which I think is vulcanite, is pristine. The draw is wide-open and the size is Grp. 5. The black stain has red (or reddish) undertones with an appealing look and texture. Used.
