ASCORTI
ASCORTI New Dear
August 7, 2025August 7, 2025
Italy Another striking example of the creative vision of Italian artisan Roberto Ascorti is found in his famous New Dear series. The hallmark here is a deliberately rough rustication of the bowl paired with a polished shank and a glossy acrylic mouthpiece. A true collector’s item! Pipe markings “Ascorti\ NEW DEAR”, “KS”, “HAND MADE \…

COMOY
COMOY’S Grand Slam 97 Van Oosten
March 30, 2023March 30, 2023
England, 1950-70s The pipe belongs to one of the most popular and respected pre-Cadogan Comoy’s grades. This attractive billiard was made during the 1950-70s period (see the nomenclature and the 3-part (inlaid) “C” on the stem).

A pipe smoker since 14 y.o., Karl Erik moved to Kenia in 1962 during the war in that country and for the next 3…

Denmark Dating of pipes (except Dunhill) is both entertaining, puzzling and inexact process. Therefore we may thank to gentlemen from Stanwell who simplified the dating problem having made a range of collectable pipes on its 40-year anniversary in 1982 and invited the best masters for their design such as Tom Eltang, Jess Chonowitsch, Anne Julie,…

SAVINELLI Samanda Old Briar 604 KS
December 31, 2015January 20, 2019
Italy An extremely full bent pipe from the awesome Italian maker. Such dramatically bent pipes named Oom Paul or a “Hungarian pipe” are a constant subject of hunting of many collectors worldwide. The pipe was very lightly smoked – the chamber is generally clean and bright.
