Brebbia: May Rocciata (9mm) Tobacco Pipe

Brebbia's May series is defined by a singular shape that exemplifies the Italian marque's more creative shaping style, aligning well with the bolder, more whimsical side of Italian pipe design. The shape itself pairs a robust, Brandy bowl with a Cavalier-like shank that extends past the heel into a flattened panel. The effect is one that poises the bowl at the form while also enabling the pipe to sit sturdily upright despite its bent stature. Both a desk pipe and a jaw-hanger — and quite compact in overall length — Brebbia's May pipe combines practicality and comfort for a conveniently reliable and aesthetically striking smoker, here dressed in the Italian marque's rugged Rocciata rustication. Furthermore, the acrylic stem is drilled to accommodate a 9mm filter and features a subtle beadline along its base for a crisp, accenting touch. Lastly, Brebbia's old "M.P.B." roundel logo adorns the stem, denoting the marque's original Italian name, Manifattura Pipe Brebbia, and lending this piece regal, historic air.
