Anybody ever had one of these?
I just bought an Estate.
It wasn't too expensive so I gave it a shot.

Actually I'm kind of psych'ed now that I found an entry on Pipedia.
The one I got is briar.
Ercole Bogni started out working for some of the most famous Italian pipe makers in northern Italy, and in 1963 he started making his own pipes. Due to the quality of his work, especially the semi-rusticated and smooth naturals, his skills as a rusticator and carver is still in high demand by other well-known pipemakers. Because Ercole works for those companies in the Gavirate region, the amount of time he dedicates to making his own pipes is not much, and as a result, the production of Ercole Bogni pipes is limited. All Ercole Bogni pipes are made entirely by hand out of the best available briar. Ercole is also one of the few makers who regularly makes the mouthpieces for his pipes out of different materials
