Ardor pipes continue a family tradition that dates back to 1911 when four Rovera brothers began making briar pipes in Varese, Italy. Unlike the current production, the majority of the older pipes were machine made. Dorelio Rovera and his son Damiano are the carvers for the company today and have focused on hand-made products while still borrowing influences from the past.Their creations can sometimes be small (compared to a group-3), but are more commonly medium-large or even massive at times. The makers have a large following of loyal customers who collect everything from classic Italian shapes to whimsical designs and creative carvings. Finishes include rusticated, rusticated in a ring blast pattern and later blasted, sandblasted, aggressively carved, and smooth. Working exclusively with acrylic rods for stems that are fitted with a delrin tenon, or silver spigot mount, their pipes can range in color from black to pink and every hue in between.
This plump little Tomato from the Roveras is fashioned in compact size, with its broad bowl melding into the gracefully curling shank and stem arrangement out back. Dressed in the earthy, knobby rustication of the Urano line and accented by a trim, cream-colored acrylic ring that matches that of the mouthpiece, this piece is further commended by a metal accent band that lends a dose of elegance to the form.
