Bruno Nuttens Pipe B1 Rusticated Bing Billiard with Nickel

Stylishly tasteful and refined, made more so for the famous crooner it was named after, this Bing billiard from Bruno Nuttens is a married blessing of shape and finish.  Despite the lengthy profile which is scaled in this dark and rusticated and nickel adorned smoker to just over six and a half inches, the mass of this well shaped and straight tapered billiard isn't too much to make a very comfortable clench and the cylindrical chamber is drilled just wide enough to handle a loose cut English or Balkan blend, though a cube cut burley would be lovely here as well.  Fitted with a an acrylic stem that will never oxidize and drilled with a marvelously smooth draw, this homage is a welcome member of the French maker's repertoire.
