Favorite pipe maker

[flat4driven]

I looked but couldn't find anything related. So who's your favorite pipe maker?
Mine was Savinelli, but is slowly becoming Boswell.

As a Canadian lad I do love Brigham pipes. I love the shapes and the rustication on the older generation. I'm a fan through and through.

 

[marmal4de]

Peterson, closely followed by Peterson, with Peterson as a runner up.

 

[flat4driven]

Haha I knew that was coming marmal4de

 

[hessenland]

I really appreciate Vauen's versatility.

 

[lyst36]

I'm partial to Bjarne at the moment.

:puffpipe: They coat the stem in brainwashing chemicals probably, I am a Pete zombie!

Peterson followed by. . . any german clay craftsman.

 

[unclearthur]

My top three are Peterson, Peterson and then there is Peterson.

For outstanding quality-Ser Jacapo. For great value- Savinelli.

 

[teamhavoc28]

Savinelli and anything I can afford. Right now I'm loving my Invicta calabash.

 

[mlaug]

Holm, Nording, and Erik.

 

[puffintuff]

I have more Petersons than anything else. Then comes Savinelli.

Preben Holm produced pipes I really seem to enjoy the most, 22 so far. 5 in the avatar.

I don't have a favorite but if I had to pick I would say it is Stanwell...

 

[thomc80]

Peterson all the way. My first pipe and still my favorite is my St. Paddys day 80s.

Peder Jeppensen who owns Neerup pipes. They're great to look at, great to smoke, & great on the wallet.

My favorites change constantly, I have everything from M&M Corn Cobs to a Bang, I have had lots of Dunhill's, Upshall's, and other higher grades, mostly I sell or trade them at pipe shows just for the fun of it. I keep pipes that just seem to smoke good for me, regardless of who made them. I am now more interested in the tobacco than the pipe, I like to experiment with combining tobacco's for different taste's, for me its just fun, fun, fun.

Tough question....

If I had to choose and no other pipes would ever be manufactured.....

Not possible.
But, Claudio Cavicchi, followed by Roberto Ascorti's father... Peppino Ascorti. Roberto is good but he ain't his father. Next two would have to be Tim George (TRG Pipes), and Uncle Arthur.
