Ser Jacopo is one of the great names in contemporary Italian artisan pipemaking — a workshop in Pesaro, Italy, founded by Giancarlo Guidi, the master craftsman who also founded the legendary Mastro de Paja brand. Each Ser Jacopo pipe is shaped, sanded, and finished with the kind of attention only a small workshop can provide. The briar is consistently high-grade well-aged Mediterranean Bruyère; the stems are hand-fitted; the engineering is precise. The Picta line pays tribute to Italian Renaissance painters. The Maxima is premium-tier with exceptional briar grade. The Delecta offers Ser Jacopo craftsmanship at more accessible price points. Each pipe is unique — subject to prior sale, and worth calling for current inventory.
