Brebbia kind of day.

I didn't have any Brebbia pipes yet and found this sweet little 50s one with a tool that includes a bottle opener.
Then I saw these little min pocket pipes and although I have no use for them whatsoever I bought them both. I'll be putting my nose in mortal danger lighting them.
Some day I'll either wonder what I was thinking or smile to myself for being so crafty. To be clear I spend most of my time wondering what I was thinking.

Very nice selection there, is the black one a morta pipe?

I like shorter pipes sometimes, the smoke getting up my nostrols adds to the experience.

Both of the little ones are Brebbia Go-Go pipes. That must have been a marketing ploy with the name. I got a nice little plaid cloth sack and box with each one.

Grand looking pipes

Somewhat in the vein of the "Devil Anse' pipes. Good looking BTW. The black one is probably "wire rusticated." Sasieni and Savinelli both use this technique on various pipe lines they sell. FTRPLT

When I worked at a shop, we had two trays of quality pipes besides a bowl of buckets pipes and a couple higher end ones in a glass case. One was Stanwell, and the other was Brebbia. We were lucky to sell one $20+ pipe a year, but the owner went with those two (and this guy was Dunhill-only himself), because at the time, they were two of the most band for your buck lines. I never see any Brebbias like the ones we had, and I find that odd. I know they weren't anything that special and in that $40-50 range.
