Expertly crafted in Italy from the finest briar, the Bianchino Pipe comes in three exquisite finishes: dark amber, rich mahogany and carved burly. The perfect gift for smokers and collectors.

Superior smoking quality - and safer - than a regular pipe. A stainless steel screen holds tobacco and ash in place. Total upward burning means no moisture or resin accumulate in the bowl. A matching wood and cork top makes The Bianchino Pipe wind and rain proof: a smoking pipe that is as much at home in the great outdoors as by the fireside.

"One day in July of 1977, I was lighting a pipe and burning my fingers - suddenly, it occurred (to me) to light it from the bottom. That very day I crudely made a pipe and the principle worked. A few years later I received a U.S. patent for its originality. Since then the improvements have continued and I believe this all natural pipe to be the very best around. I hope you agree.

"To the Indians the pipe was and is very sacred. With that in mind perhaps when you smoke this pipe you might contemplate what this new direction is trying to say. I think it's saying that it is not too late to turn ourselves around. In any case I wish you, the holder of this pipe, some peace, joy and companionship, and thanks."

Follow the simple instructions to get started, be patient, experiment, and you will discover a new high in smoking pleasure.
1. Remove lid and fill up. (Don’t tamp too tight or tobacco may be difficult to light.)
2. Replace lid and light up. (Lid stays on while lighting and smoking, giving suction while keeping tobacco contained.) Once lid is secure you can light your pipe from any direction, whichever is easiest for you. Lighting from down under will come naturally. Once lit remember the smoking position is with lid facing top. This is for the driest, coolest smoke.
3. To get rid of spent ash tap pipe into ash tray, ash will sift through screen. Remove lid and loosen tobacco inside with a pipe tool, don’t poke through screen. Loosening tobacco makes it easier to relight.
4. To empty, remove lid and empty contents into an ash tray.
TIPS: Don’t remove screen, leave it in place. It is replaceable however... While loosening tobacco and relighting, a spark or two may occur, just be aware... During smoking remove lid and tamp, helps with a more satisfying draw... Have two or more of these pipes in order to give them a rest... Clean out stem as you would a regular pipe, the stem separates from the shank which is attached to the bowl.
