Castello 'Old Antiquari' BIG-LINE Shape 55 # 208A
This is the first shape 55 BIG-LINE I have ever seen. The sandblast is well defined with the right side being wavy ring grain and the lefty more gnarly. Needless to say it is a very large piece with thick walls & a 1 1/4"( 32 mm) I.B. diameter it will deliver a cool long session easily. I doubt you will feel any heat when holding in your hand. This one has a very slight chin. Overall a truly great looking piece with Italian "sprezzatura". Being 55 it is a sitter.
