Soldato Pipes- Info sought

[MichaelDurso]

I recently acquired some NOS Soldato pipes at an auction and can’t find anything about them online. Can anybody shed some light?

Soldato is Italian for soldier, so army mount makes sense. If I were to guess, I'd say its probably equivalent to the Army & Navy pipes made by KB&B.

That was one hell of an auction! I spent waaaay too much $!

I can't find any reference, but it's probably a 70's-80's sub-brand of Lorenzo or Rossi. Just a guess. Are there shape#s? Might match shape#s with another Italian brand.

No joke. It was nuts. I did too but I knew I was going to resell some of what I bought since it was lots of multiples, and so far that’s gone well.

That’s a good idea. the shape numbers are 815, 817, 819, 821. I’ll look around at other brands to see
