Barontini Amaretto 702 Smooth Bent Brandy Estate Briar Pipe, Italian Estates

Out of stock

Description

While not as well known as other Italian pipe brands, Barontini is one of the oldest in the country. Founded in 1890 in Tuscany by Turildo Barontini, the company initially only produced briar, but in 1925, Turildo’s son Bruno shifted the operation to making pipes from this briar. Later, the company was inherited by Cesare Barontini, whose name is most readily associated with Barontini pipe production. Barontini is still operated by Cesare and his wife today.

This Barontini is from the make’s amaretto line, named for the fine Italian liqueur and its bronze hue. This one is a very traditional bent brandy, with its liqueur-inspired stain highlighting some very nice bird’s-eye grain patterns.

The condition is excellent. There’s one or two small scratches on the bowl, but nothing major to note.
