What
many pipe smokers may not realize is that Brebbia pipes are a part of a
storied history  which coincides with the origins of the Savinelli pipe.
The founder of Brebbia was Enea Buzzi,
who, in 1947 teamed with Carlo Savinelli's son, Achille (Enea's
Cousin), to make high quality pipes for the famed Savinelli Shop in
Milan, Italy. They specialized in high quality pipes at a very
reasonable price and became very successful. Enea administered over the
production of the pipes while Achille supervised sales of the pipes
worldwide.
However, in 1953, Enea and Achille decided to go in
different directions. Although, until Savinelli was able to set up
their new plant and proceed with their operation separately, Enea was
producing both Savinelli brand pipes and Brebbia trademark MPB(Manifatture Pipe Brebbia) pipes until the split was finalized in 1956. The MPB logo was eventually replaced, in 1976, by the new  'Pipe Brebbia'
logo. Brebbia decided, following World War II, to take a bolder,
riskier move by making pipes which are of high quality and affordable.
During this time, most pipes were very cheap and not geared towards
aesthetics. This move proved to cement Brebbia's success and strong
reputation up to present times.
Today, Enea's son, Luciano, runs the
very successful Pipe Brebbia operation. Their philosophy of pipemaking
includes ageing briar for at least a year from purchase while applying
heat and humidity to the briar to allow the wood to dry slowly from the
inside out. After a block of briar is cut, it is dried an additional
six month before staining. Brebbia, during the past 15 years has
created several  popular lines of pipes, much revered by collectors
worldwide. One in the Jubilee
pipe, which was introduced in 1992 and continued until 1998, when
Brebbia celebrated its 50th Anniversary. Also, Brebbia's unique and
very collectible Calabash shape is an innovative design combining the
best attributes of the classical Sherlock Holmes style Calabash and the
Dublin shape along with a hint of the Horn shape in the curvature of
the shank. Not only that, but Brebbia has been responsible for a number
of innovations throughout their sixty year history by adding a bowl cap
to their pipe designs to keep out rain while letting in smoke as well
as a  smoke dispersal device which is engineered into the mouthpiece
which allows smoke to be spread evenly throughout the mouth. The
Brebbia pipe comes in an extraordinary array of shapes and series.
