Volcano

As the name suggests, the Volcano pipe shape takes its inspiration in the frame of a volcano on the surface of the earth. The base of the bowl is therefore particularly large and, the more your eyes will look at the top of the bowl, the more the latter will get shorter (like a volcano shape). This conical/flared silhouette is actually the opposite of the Dublin pipe. Artistical interpretations of the Volcano shape are numerous amid modern Danish craftspeople, or even amid Japanese manufacturers, where the bowl can, for example, represent the Mount Fuji. Usually, Volcano pipes are made in order to stand on themselves, without the need of an additional support like a pipe stand. To create a Volcano pipe, some pipe masters also favour exceptional briar so that they can put forward the grain of the wood. We can therefore find most of the time magnificent flames all around the bowl, and partridge eyes under. Volcano models are really rare, and we are proud to be able to propose you several of them from the Italian pipe master Luigi Viprati, and others coming from the German brand Vauen.
