Yup, that classic Grabow/Sparta rustication. Now if they only did the double carve again.Piping Abe wrote: ↑Wed Jan 25, 2023 1:16 pmLike thisWildcat wrote: ↑Wed Jan 25, 2023 1:11 pmYou mean the multiple carves if you will, not a faux sandblast, correct ? I wish DG/Sparta still did the double carved look. My absolute favorite rustication regardless of manufacturer.Piping Abe wrote: ↑Wed Jan 25, 2023 12:55 pm
I like the band on the straight. But i’ll probably go with Bent Rusticated. Hoping for the classic dremel looking style.

I believe the double carve is where the pipe has that deep dremel type carving and is also fully wire brushedPiping Abe wrote: ↑Wed Jan 25, 2023 1:31 pmWhats a double carve?

The Westbrook pot and the Viscount pot I have in the current rotation are double carved. It is my favorite Grabow finish.Piping Abe wrote: ↑Wed Jan 25, 2023 1:40 pmI don’t think i’ve ever seen thatMr Beardsley wrote: ↑Wed Jan 25, 2023 1:36 pmI believe the double carve is where the pipe has that deep dremel type carving and is also fully wire brushed
