Mario Grandi pipe partisans. Let's see them!

[expatpipe]

Sits in my bottom drawer unsmoked.. to be perfectly honest. Loved the way it looked but was sadly suprised by the overly massive chamber. I'd waste way too much tobacco in that mamba jamba. Not sure what to do with it. It'll sit there until I get into it one day or trade for a pipe I'd get some real pleasure and use out of.

Very thorough, rustic, Buckeye! I get along great with pipes that have a lot of texture.
Briar Bully... the chamber doesn't look too large, judging by the pictures but... it's an injustice to let it just sit... LOL.
There's an auction for a Mario Grandi that I'm itching to bid on but... I need to take it easy... LOL.

I couldn't help it, I had to, "buy it now"...

Briar Bully That is the nicest mario grandi I've ever seen, too bad about the huge bowl, I like classic shapes way more than freehands.

I've been lusting after a few of his pipes for some time now. How do they smoke? Seems like he has a keen eye for the briar.

Thanks marmal4de, I wanted a pipe with a yellow stem and it was the one that striked me. I've decided to save it for this summers vacation. Would be nice to light it up for the fist time walking along a beach.

bootlegbonvivant... If I were you, I'd stop lusting and... ask one out, braduh! LOL. If pipes could be jealous, the others in my collection would certainly be jealous of my Mario Grandi collection. They all smoked great for me. For as much personality as his pipes have, they certainly are affordable! If ordered from the ebay auction, they show up to my door here in NJ in just two days... FROM ROME so... Very quick shipping too.

hobie1dog... thanks braduh... I think one is going to come in second to my current Mario G. sandblast.
