I have one Brebbia that I really like - smokes great. A little bit of history with it though. After one smoke, the vulcanite went all green. After a bit of research, I found that micromesh pads seemed to be the best option to clean it and worked great. Just went a bit too hard where the stem joins the shank and now it's a bit rounded off. Guess that becomes part of my personal story with it. But VERY light weight and smokes flake, (which I bought it for,) wonderfully.
Thanks - yeah - it just doesn't fit flush anymore. And when I'm done smoking it, it seems the tenon gets a bit "flexible" when the pipe cools and I take it apart to clean.
that's my Brebbia Iceburg. Not the best pictures but it's a great pipe. And I've had it since the early mid 90s.
I have an Iceberg myself, but I've noticed more recent models are actually stamped "Jceberg". No idea why.
All the newer ones I've seen are darker and completely rusticated. Mine is partially rusticated. I wondered about that Jceberg thing too. Though best part on mine is the gnome stamping.
Ninja Noce 1001. Excellent smoker. I love it. I'd buy another Brebbia for sure. And the finish has held up amazing over the last year.
While I've had a few Brebbia pipes in the past, this is the one I currently have. It's stamped MPB Golden Gnome Super, which is one of their earlier pipes. MPB stands for Manifattura Pipe Brebbia. It's a great stocky little billiard that I smoke quite often.
Brebbia makes some great pipes. This Pura Calabash is one of my favorites.
I know I have better pictures somewhere, but here's my Brebbia 984:
An elegant little Prince/Rhodesian hybrid that I don't smoke nearly enough!

I just posted these 2 in a for sale thread earlier today. Very good pipes, smoke great. But I mostly smoke Meers now and I a ton of great pipe sitting gathering dust.
