With a distinctly Italian, serpentine swelling of the stem, a Brebbia "2801" is hard to mistake as the work of any other pipe manufacturer. It's presented here in a deep, rugged sandblast, dressed up with a heavy, semi-gloss black finish. And as a bonus, it sits, or, really, balances perfectly on the underside of the transition, holding the bit about a half an inch above the surface.
