Pipes You Wanna Add to Your Collection

[craig61a]

At this point in my pipe smoking career, there's not much of anything I'd want to add to my collection. Unless I stumble across something that's an incredible bargain, and trips my trigger...

Over the last year or two I have picked up some pipes in disrepair just for the challenge of refurbishing/restoring them.

Dunhill 3109 Ruby Bark, Russet, County (1980s production) and Amber Root estate pipes.

Someday, I’d like a Cannoy Suede finish pipe. Next pipe will most likely be a Cutty of some sort. It’s such a classic and I don’t have one.

 

[Paul 3.0]

Always wanted an Ardor, preferably a Urano Fantasy Bent Ball.....and I am eyeballing one. It's been on my list for YEARS....

Eltang
Lee von Erck
Castello Sea Rocks

In order:

1. A Neerup acorn with the point bottoms like this or this. They came out last year but did not come back this year.
2. A Stanwell 01, the one that’s an elephant's foot/pickaxe/cobra.
3. A Moonshine Cannonball dark stain with a tortoise or black stem
4. A stout, chubby bent billiard
5. A stout, chubby straight or bent apple
6. Maybe a stout Comoy like the 499

If you see/own either #1 or #2, please PM me!

I have a Vauen Maris and Fuego. Good smoking pipes all.

 

[Swiss Army Knife]

My unicorn is a smooth billiard Meer fitted for a 9mm filter.

 

[Old school 33192]

Almost any Dr Grabow I see

After recently buying one estate Musico, I definitely want 4-5 more, but they’d have to really speak to me. Not generally a fan of nose warmers if I’m spending north or $250 per pipe.

Also want a newgrange spigot (999 or 408), and an XL02 (either walnut spigot or barley spigot).

 

[SourShank]

Thinking about one of Bondarev's Canadians. Would love this stummel paired with a Cumberland stem.

 

[MacMarty89]

I want to add a pipe by Danish pipemaker Tom Eltang. I love his iconic pokers. Unfortunately he doesn't make them with a 9 mm filter, yet. He will soon though, so good for me.

I've been trying to find a couple of Savinelli III Unfinished 320 pipes for my friend and me. I missed out on the releases in the past; I tried contacting Laudisi (I believe they were the US distributors), but no luck. The 320 is my friend's favourite shape (I love it, too) and I'm pretty sure he doesn't have one of these—it would be a gift he definitely wouldn't expect. I dig the idea of having a flawed, filled, raw version, but they're surprisingly difficult to find now. There are some other shapes available from a dealer in Italy, but, the shipping they charge is killer—it's not really worth it for shapes that don't mean as much as the 320 to me.

I'm on the lookout for a birth year Dunhill and a Caminetto New Dear Bent Egg.

I won a great danish style lovat that is unstamped off eBay. It’s stout at 62 grams and not a style I ever thought to pursue. Now that I have it, I see the appeal. I want an S Bang:

 

[Christos D. Tsatsaronis]

2 pipe styles I saw from other members here, in this forum: Kiko Meer and leather wrapped.
And a clay.

Beautiful pipe dreams! May you all have them realized.
At this point I have one commission and that’s it. I can enjoy looking at the world’s most fabulous pipes, admire them, and not want a single one, at least, not much.
I’ve been fortunate with the pipes I’ve acquired, some of best smokers made over the past 140 years. There aren’t any better made by anybody anywhere and there’s a nice enough selection.
I hope all of you find the same level of satisfaction thru your pursuit.

An Orlik or Charles Maas cavalier. Not sure if they made them or not, I haven’t bothered to look hard enough yet.
