I'm eyeballing this Castello. I don't know anything about them, but I'm really digging it. Unfortunately, it's well out of my price range.

Hi Ryan,
Man, this pic slapped me with some memories.
Castello makes wonderful pipes and they're expensive, (I'm smoking my only one as I write) but they hold value well. This bent egg, with the acrylic ferrule and military mount is a fairly rare Castello shape and treatment, understated elegance.
This shape, in a fiammata grade, almost caused me a world of grief with SwissAir customs around 1982 (the memories).
You've got a good eye and thanks for posting.
As far as what I'm eyeballing, it's always Barling and Ser Jacopo. I search on other brands but those two is a several time a day thing for me.
Pete
