[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 216726, member: 1211"] finish: rusticated > sandblast > smooth. My idea of a great rustication is uniformity, not designs through tooling (looks amateurish to me, no matter how well practiced). Caminetto Business. Castello Sea Rock. I'm simple like that. color: tend to gravitate towards lighter stains, but it isn't something I care about much when getting a pipe. the good smokers all end up being darker anyway. dislikes: [i]CANNOT[/i] stand more than a single finish on a pipe. DO NOT WANT a smooth rim on a rusticated pipe. DO NOT WANT a smooth shank on a rusticated bowl. DO NOT WANT patches of this and patches of that. DO NOT WANT more than one rustication technique on a pipe (hello, Ardor, you hideous briar defiler, you). [/QUOTE]
