A good looking pipe! This was a great series!
I’ve got a few of the 2000 P&T and RTDA shape 15 billiards and imo the buttons and stems are about perfect.

I thought that I recognized that band! Yes, that stem looks incredible to my eye as well.
My shape 34's button is also thinner as is the stem, I was thinking that it may have been re-worked.
@Zero Billiard is a great looking pipe, stem & button look way thinner than other Castello's.

That's the deep end of the Castello pool, congratulations and good eye by the wife! (When in Rome, get your husband a fantastic Castello)
Dang, this lady knows how to pick a pipe!
She sure does! I told her a few shapes I like and a brand or two I was interested in, left the rest for her to decide!
“Go with your heart”
Guess her heart was in the right place! (And having family who live there and smoke a pipe helps, too lol)
New 55 from Luca… loving the look and size
That’s beautiful man and being a 55
Even cooler!
That is a stunner! (likely the best looking 55 I've ever seen!)
Had an eye on that one. Cool to see someone here snag it. Enjoy her

I’m very excited about acquiring these unique 1999 G/GG size Castello kkkk Collection grade shape 67’s. I appropriately picked up the RTDA hearts pipe at the 2023 Las Vegas Intl Pipe Show and the other was dropped at my door today! Like my last pipe post in this thread the pipes were probably on the bench at the same time.
Oooo tell me about this hearts thing … special release?
I’m new to Castello’s this year but been a bit addicted. Something about them constantly dropping unique variations keeps me intrigued and keeps me sending money to Luca in Italy .

Yes, the pipe is number 7 of 16 pipes featured at the 1999 RTDA trade show in Las Vegas. They did a few of each card suits and a few with all four suits cut out of the inlaid 18k band. I will be on the hunt for others.
PS I think there’s a picture of my 2000 RTDA pipes earlier in the thread
