Description from the seller

The Il Ceppo brand was born in the 1970s in Italy, in the Pesaro pipemaker community.
It is not an industrial factory like Savinelli or Peterson, but a handcrafted, semi-artisanal production, with manual briar work.
The name “Il Ceppo” means: the block of rough briar from which the pipe is born.
Thus the brand itself evokes the artisanal processing of briar.

Il Ceppo production periods
1. Initial period – the 1970s
limited production
many freehand
Italian briar
manual workmanship
strongly influenced by the Danish school (Stanwell, Preben Holm)

These are the rarest Il Ceppo pipes.
2. Pesaro period – the 1980s / 1990s

This is the period most widespread in the market during the summer.
Il Ceppo 80s–90s
