Alberto Bonfiglioli 5 New

 Alberto has been making pipes for over 45 years, his way at his speed. All the pipes are have a distinctive, Alberto Italian look, but like no others. He runs a small smoke shop in Bologna, Italy, that is also the meeting place of the Alberto Bonfiglioli Pipe Club. 

All of the 80-100 a year are hand made by him from sun dried choice selected Grecian briar - that he has aged for 10-15 years. His rare O.B.B. stamped 20-25 year briar are highly sought after. Who else has wood that old.

GL Pease write's " I've had a few of Alberto's pipes come in and out of my collection over the years. They have all been excellent smokers".

Every Alberto Bonfiglioli pipe has a Lucite stem & is stamped, "Alberto Bonfiglioli, Made in City of Bologna Italy", the shield of US "Route 66", because he traveled it, a size stamp "XL" etc, grade stamps, URSUS , Black Angus etc.
