Hi all!

We had a pipe show at one of my local shops this past Saturday - Davidus, in Ellicott City.

Heckuva show, lots of Radice, Il Ceppo, and Amorelli pipes there, from the folks over at www.rdfield.com

Anywho, I picked up an Amorelli Etna pipe, and a friend of mine gave me one of his Savinelli pipes!

I've smoked three bowls in the Amorelli, and it truly is a beautiful, great-smoking pipe!

Thats great John, This IMO is a great part of this hobbie. Finding a great smoking and eye pleasing pipe and being able to sit back and just enjoy it.

What shape is the Amorelli?

Nice

Nice pipes all! I've long thought the Il Ceppo a real "sleeper" as to value. I've owned a couple that have been great.

Sounds like a great time.

Oh gawd, here I go again!

Saturday I was up at my local shop, and was talking pipes with a friend of mine, and we both ended up getting Mastro de Paja pipes - his was a sitter he'd been eye-ing for a while, while mine has an octagonal shape to it.

It's a pretty good looking pipe, and smokes well too!

Then Sunday, I went to another local shop [in the same chain] and picked up an Il Ceppo - what a beauty!!! This pipe is awesome! I smoked it last night - and it's one of my cooler smokers

It helps that the diameter of hte pipe is around 3.5"

WTF??? 3.5 INCHES???

DraKhen99 · 04-21-2005, 05:07 AM

uh... maybe I over-estimated it, but it's a good size Il Ceppo

It's probably more like 2.5" to 3" wide. The bowl is a larger one, but not the largest I've seen.

Mind you, the widths I am stating are the total pipe widths, not just the bowl

Can you imagine a 3.5" WIDE bowl!?!?!?
