If you have any high grade pipes that you would like me to buy or consign for you, please contact me, and I will be happy to work with you! Here is a brief story about Ardor pipes:One of the pure joys in pipe collecting is the Ardor pipe, and it is surely one of the finest, yet at the same time, most affordable Italian pipes on the marketplace today. Ardor is the invention of the Rovera family, and its origins begin in Varese, Italy in 1911. Originally four brothers (Frederico, Carlo, Cornelio and Franscesco) started the company, which would become known as Ardor, and produced many pipes that have become popular throughout Europe, and now, the United States.The attention to detail and the fine craftsmanship that you would expect to see in a high quality pipe are all present in the Ardor. They are available in a number of lines including but not limited to, smooth & natural (Venere), carved (Meteora), and sandblasted (Sabbiata). Ardor pipes come in 150 shapes and are principally carved by father Dorelio Rovera and his son Damiano. The name "Ardor" is a combination of the initials of Dorelio Rovera's father Angelo Rovera "AR" and Dorelio himself "DOR". The Italian pipe making community is littered with father and son teams, but few if any can surpass the talented Roveras and their exceptional smoking pipes. We invite you to join those who have already experienced the "Ardor" of smoking a truly great pipe.About this Ardor pipe:You are bidding on an UNSMOKED hand crafted, Ardor "Urano" dark stained hand rusticated finish, "Bent Military Panel Apple" shaped pipe, with a beautiful mottled yellow acrylic stem and ferule, along with an elegant hallmarked sterling silver stem trim band, that was crafted in 2013.Overall, this is one stunning looking, yet practical pipe!This wonderful pipe possesses both a great balance, with a low center of gravity, and an extremely comfortable hand feel. A pipe cleaner will pass to the bottom of the bowl. The draft is nice and easy.Here are the dimensions of this beautiful pipe: The length is about 5.875". The bowl height is about 1.95". The tobacco chamber is about 0.875" in diameter and tapers down the bowl's 1.70" inner depth. Capacity is about the same as a Group 6 size Dunhill pipe. The weight is 71 grams.
