The pipe is not simply an object for smoking tobacco. The pipe is a world.
A world made of gestures, of looks, of thoughts, of reasoning inspired by the thread of bluish smoke that rises from the chimney or by the crackling of tobacco that burns slowly…
The pipe is to carefully prepare the tobacco to be loaded, carefully adjust the pressure exerted with your finger, pay attention to the intensity of the suction, it is the chimney that burns if it is smoked too quickly, it is the aroma of Virginia, it is… a world.

Roberto is an actor, sculptor, graphic designer, illustrator and much more; I am sure that his art will bring you into the wonderful world of the pipe.
Simenon, creator of the famous commissioner Maigret, who was a big pipe smoker, speaks of her:
