The Talamona L'Artigiano Bent Author 116 combines a full-bodied, rounded briar bowl with a distinctive translucent amber-orange mouthpiece.
Its Author profile features a broad lower bowl, softly tapered rim and rising shank, creating a compact, substantial appearance. The black textured finish reveals irregular grain patterns and shallow ridges across the briar, contrasting with the smooth, brightly coloured stem.
The curved mouthpiece follows the upward angle of the shank, while the pronounced transition between black briar and orange acrylic provides the pipe's most recognisable visual feature.
The Talamona name became established through the work of Italian pipemaker Cesare Talamona in the 1970s. Paolo Croci acquired the brand in 2007 and resumed production in 2010, continuing its tradition of distinctive briar pipes.
The L'Artigiano 116 is an appealing choice for enthusiasts who appreciate traditional bowl shapes paired with expressive contemporary finishes.
