This Brebbia Alpina cavalier was a combined effort reconditioning with my friend from Marvic Pipes USA, Gary Balestrieri and myself. When I received the pipe it was missing the end cap, and the original stem was oversized at the stem shank connection. I sent it off to Gary and he carved a ball cap, then he cut down the stem to match the circumference of the shank.
When I got it back I performed the finishing touches. I corrected the out of round chamber, gave it a smooth beveled rim with an orange and black contrast stain to add a little color. The rest of the stummel got fresh coat of black, then smoothed out the tooth chatter and put on a fresh shine.
