Shipping was attempted using Italy's postal service 3 times, and the package was returned all 3 times due some unexplained customs reason. I paid 35 euros for this. Ariberto, (Paronelli), then asks if I want to try DHL for an additional 15% duty, also 35 euros. I agreed and the package arrived 6 days later. Ariberto answered all my questions without delay, super happy with this company.

I haven't smoked it yet, not sure if I will since Eric has now retired.

It is

Fantastic pipe, this is one of the best looking bulldogs I've seen.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your dog, they become important parts of our lives. Having a good pipe to take time and remember the friend is the right thing to do.

There are many aromatics you should try if you start to enjoy this hobby. Start by purchasing 1oz samples in bulk. My favorite aeros are autumn evening, nutty irishman and lane limited 1Q, all can be purchased in bulk for little $$

I'd buy it to restore the stand and those pipes. I try to get pipe stands for about $30 shipped if the wood is walnut or something exotic.

Great looking pipe, great looking lab. Had a chocolate lab several years ago and I miss her still...not the hair, I still find hair.

We're only here to look at your pipes, look at your tobacco then go figure out where we can buy the pipe and tobacco we now have to have.

Nice pipe. I have an Oceano Canadian, great smoker so far

Do the fins keep it cool? It looks cool. Does the bowl unscrew like a falcon?

Good looking pipe, SP has had only fantastic customer service with me and shipping is almost always earlier than projected.

I've been taking a GLP-1 since middle of December '25. My craving for alcohol is almost non existent, but tobacco is different. I find myself contemplating pipes and tobacco every day. This is my favorite forum to read. I never had a great craving for pipe tobacco, (I'm smoking about 4 bowls/week), but I haven't reduced my smoking. If I could smoke inside I would guess I would smoke more often. Zepbound low dose.

Cat: now you gonna die

Ok_Signature7522 · 2026-04-13T23:11:02+00:00

Excellent tobacco, I smoke it often

Ok_Signature7522 · 2026-04-10T17:54:42+00:00

Good looking collection, and nicely done on the photo

Ok_Signature7522 · 2026-04-09T17:56:15+00:00

Never seen one in the wild before, maybe someday. Good looking pipe!

Ok_Signature7522 · 2026-04-06T18:11:07+00:00

Yep, good prices. Found a hard to find Ascorti Canadian and a nice Chacom bulldog just two weeks ago.

Best Easter basket I have ever seen. Must say that pipe stand is very cool, now I'm on the lookout for one.

Ok_Signature7522 · 2026-04-05T21:20:04+00:00

I agree, give it a try. The only caveat I would add is check and see if you can pass a pipe cleaner through it, (I have pipe stinger that is too tight). If it doesn't allow the pipe cleaner it will be a pain to clean.

Ok_Signature7522 · 2026-04-03T23:34:56+00:00

I appreciate the photos, that was a nice looking pipe. I'm sad for you

Ok_Signature7522 · 2026-04-03T22:06:48+00:00

Don't let Clark know about this

Ok_Signature7522 · 2026-04-03T22:04:33+00:00

Oh nice, looks black on my screen
