I'm always amazed at the number of pipe brands/makers when I'm browsing for a new acquisition. I own a Charatan and a Peterson and have a Savinelli on the way. I'm also considering a Stanwell. They are all estates produced from the 20's to the 60's. I spend anywhere from $50 to $150 a pipe. By buying estates, I feel like I can get higher quality for lower prices.
Anyway,if you could own only half a dozen brands, which would they be? Are there countries of origin you prefer?
Some day I may get into some ultra premiums and low production carvers, but first I want to establish a good solid collection of recognized brands.
