[QUOTE="Jar, post: 157222, member: 1564"] Ad dendum: Looking at the pipe shown here by Author of this thread I can't resist the impression, that this very pipe was originally rusticated - the surface was sculpted not always in accordance with the natural directions of the harder briar "veins". This might explain the obvious difference in look of this very piece in comparison to look of the typical sandblasted and then thermaly cured surfaces (Dunhill, Ashton, etc). After closer look at the pictures I somehow think on rustication process as presented by Mrs. Cavicchi here: Daniela Showing her Rustication Skills [url=http://www.pipesandtobaccos.com/pipesandtobaccos/info/insights/cavlab.htm]http://www.pipesandtobaccos.com/pipesandtobaccos/info/insights/cavlab.htm[/url] and I guess, that if such Cavicchi pipe would be later exposed to thermal treatment, perhaps the surface would look similar to the pipe shown on the beginning of this thread.
