Got this pretty little clean & straight grained Elba Pot for a song (and I sing crappy). Don't know much about Elba except it's an Italian pipe...possibly a Lorenzo? I guess I'm on the hunt now for a couple more pots; just got the little Medico (thanks to Fr_Tom) which smoked great last night packed with Uhle's 00 burley. A couple of Beachwood Amalgamator IPA's and some good friends...great night!

He has got me looking at pot shapes too. Nice grab.

That looks a little like a Savinelli 121 shape.

It does indeed; if it smokes like the few savinelli's I have, I'll be a happy camper!
