Jose Rubio # JR 65
Jose's makes classic traditional UK shapes with his 5 part deep carving sandblast (10-12 hrs) and retains the lines of the traditional shape. Jose has an instinctive sense of what he can create out of a block.
This full bent Dublin is a rarity. This piece has slim almost delicate lines, giving it a lightness and elegance that few pipes have. The bowl front is at the same angle as the back of the bowl, albeit shorter, while the shank is at a sharp angle as it ascends from the bowl. From a thick wide bowl a slender shank and stem fuse to lighten the look and weight. And even with this sharp shank angle it passes a cleaner easily. The Spanish sterling silver band compliments the pipe as does the hand cut Cumberland stem. Beauty , lightweight, and comfort from a master pipe maker.
