Ariberto Paronelli Bog Oak Rustic Blue Briar Fishtail Pipe (ART009)

The Paronelli range are classic Italian pipes with a modern twist.

Only first choice Italian Briar from Sardinia and Calabria is used in the manufacturing process and the minimum age of Briar used is 70 years – ensuring the highest quality smoking experience.

Each pipe is finished naturally, using Carnauba Wax – no artificial elements are used and annual production from Paronelli is only around 600 pieces.

They are hand crafted in Italy and each pipe is a unique one-off – no two are the same.

Bog Oak is semi-fossilized wood. Morta is found in various locations across the globe, usually in marshlands or moors, and varies widely in its durability, age, and potential usefulness for pipe making. It is a vast area to search, and for most of the year it is inaccessible because the water levels in the crisscrossing aqueducts rise high enough that the open areas cannot be walked for morta. During the Fall, however, the water levels fall and during a narrow window from September to November one can (with wading boots) traverse through the moors.

Presented in an original Paronelli pouch and box.
