Recent win is this Cellini Original classic pot. I fully restored this pipe and I'll say it smoked excellent. Seen one like this on eBay for 125.00. If you've seen many of my posts concerning pipe wins you know I'm a El'Cheapo. Picked this one up for 12.00! Anyone else have experience with these?

I picked 1 up cheap in a lot on the bay, it's pretty, came in a yellow felt bag, smokes a little hot. Check out pipepedia.org for more info on the brand.

I have one i picked up for very little on fleabay - it has been well loved and used, and is all the more gorgeous for it.
It has provided me with one of my finest smoking experiences to date, and has only been equalled in this by a LEE Authentic 3 star i picked up about the same time.
That pipe you have there, if it smokes as well as mine, will be, quite possibly, the best 12$ you will ever have spent.

Heck of a nice pipe for $12. Congrats. Never heard of the brand but I'm impressed by that one.

Cellini was an old line pipe maker in Chicago. Mine cost more than $12, but it is a fine puffer.

My kind of pipe and not because it went for a song. I love the tapered fishtail and the grain s gorgeous. I love the comfort of this bit style and today's newer pipes just are lacking in that respect. I'm no fan of big bits and acrylic is too slippery to clench. Nice score!

Love my Cellini, picked it up a few weeks back for about $18 thanks to a bad photo and even worse description... Fit and finish is exceptional, and it smokes like a dream.

Cellini is a solid brand. I've smoked them over the years. I don't think I have any at the moment.
Beautiful pipe, BTW.
Best Wishes,

My Brebbia Cellini 1/4 bent is my best smoker. Period. Good catch.

Awesome restore project !! I love the history of the pipe. $12 well spent better than all the Dunhills in the world.
Cheers,

I have a couple Cellini pipes and love them; they are great smokers and nicely shaped. I picked one up for $34 and another for $5 :D
