MORETTI RECANATI FREEHAND ANNI '80 - Pipe - Briar

Moretti Recanati – Italian artisanal briar pipe in natural briar – Production years 1980–1988

A refined artisanal Moretti Recanati pipe, made from premium Italian briar and dating from the 1980–1988 period, an era considered among the most appreciated in Marche craftsmanship. The dating is supported by the stamped brand MORETTI RECANATI, by the presence of the original ebonite mouthpiece with a metal tenon and condenser, as well as by the characteristic natural edge (plateau) finish, typical of high-quality artisanal pipes of that era.

The specimen stands out for its splendid vertical flame (straight grain), the elegant shape and generous dimensions, which attest to the use of a carefully selected briar block. The natural edge retains its original charm, while the bowl shows a normal and uniform patina of use, indicative of proper use. The mouthpiece is original and in good condition.
