Second Hand Lorenzetti

[possiblemeltdown]

Picked up an unsmoked second hand Lorenzetti today. Seemed like a good buy. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this brand. I believe it is from their Julius Caesar line. As well, it looks perfectly clean but I was wondering if any cleaning is recommended with a second hand pipe such as this.

Thanks Russ. Weather coming in tomorrow, so I see some cleaning then a quiet afternoon visiting my neighbour and starting to break in the new pipe while the last minute people buy their xmas trees!

Irish, thanks for the welcome!
I had never heard of the brand until I found this one for sale. A quick google search turned up a few favorable opinions so I thought I would take a chance. It is the only new [unsmoked] pipe I have ever owned. So now I get to learn how to break it in!

Meltdown I had a Lorenzetti straight billiard that was a fantastic smoker. I traded it for a pipe that I also love but I do miss that pipe. That factory also produces the Italian made Brigham pipes. Good quality factory pipes.
