A local estate sale had about 15 nice pipes and these are the ones I bought. Got them for $120.

The Calabash is unmarked, but has a meer bowl that's removable from the gourd.
The long stem is a Savenilli lumberman and the other I've never heard of. It's marked Alprina, Brebia Italy.
Any information you can give me on then will be appreciated!
I'll begin the cleaning soon!

Brebbia make excellent pipes. The one you have there is a cavalier shape. Here is a listing for a similar pipe that might interest you

Nice pipes. I've been to a bunch of estate sales, and have hardly ever found any pipes. The few that I have found weren't worth buying.

I feel your pain! This sale was advertised on a local Facebook page with pictures of for sale items, including close up pictures of the pipes
I was there when they opened at 9 AM and the lady running the sale was trying to Google the pipes to figure out what to price them at.
I was in the right place at the right time!
