A olive band is a small connecting element, often made of silver or aluminium, between the wooden bowl of the pipe and the mouthpiece. The ferrule serves both an aesthetic and functional purpose:

• Reinforcement: The silver or aluminium olive band protects the wooden pipe bowl from cracks and wear caused by frequent attachment and removal of the mouthpiece.
• Connection: It ensures a precise and stable fit between the bowl and the mouthpiece.
• Aesthetics: Olive bands give the pipe an elegant and refined appearance and are often a hallmark of high-quality pipes.

The term "olive" refers to the concept of a smooth, oval-shaped ring, although these elements are not always literally olive-shaped. Silver and aluminium is preferred due to its durability, resistance to corrosion, and appealing appearance.

The price refers to a single piece.
