Baraccini Raffinato

Nice pipe that draws smooth and cool. It gets a little hot to the touch towards the end. The filter is a plus also. Rick

Really nice Lovat. I got one of these during the IPSD sale, and the Lovat was one of the few styles left, but it's the one I actually wanted. If you're reading this, the Lovat is currently the only one left in stock as of 03/16/21. Really, this is comparable to a Savinelli in the same 100 dollar price range. I'm usually bubble-phobic about smooth, shiny finish pipes, but I've had no issues with the finish, and I've probably smoked at least 20 bowls full in this so far. It loves Burleys.

I love this pipe and the service of pipes and cigars

I had to ream open a hole at the chamber. The drilling out of the hole had not been completed. Once that was done it has smoked well and I enjoy the pipe

Attractive pipe, smokes fine. Pipe overall and bowl size particularly are on the small side for me.

I had my eye on this pipe for a while. When it was on special for International Pipe Smoking Day, I snapped it up. I'm glad I did - it's definitely one of my favorites.

This beautiful pipe is perfect for clenching. It has a broad, deep bowl, and smokes like a dream.

EXCELLENT PIPE

Very nicely made pipe. Large capacity bowl ideal for more complex blends. Finish is beautiful. Construction, fit-up and drilling are flawless. Smokes superbly and feels like a quality piece within the hand. This was part of promo deal I took advantage of. My very first Baraccini pipe. Very satisfied with this brand overall. Will most likely purchase again.

On third half load, that's how I break in new pipe, I noticed lacquer peeling from the pipe. Poor quality or my pipe is defective.

Fine pipe and excellent value.

A beautifully made pipe. I have received many compliments on it already. The pipe is almost broken in and I am very happy with this purchase and will definitely purchase another Baraccini Pipe.

I like the pipe and have smoked it a couple of times with pleasant result. I gave the 4 star rating because of quality: there were several scratches on the bowl (looks like it slid across a surface of some kind.

Very nice pipe

Handsome pipe. Smokes ok. Drilled high.

Such a beautiful pipe! It smokes as good as it looks.

I picked up a Baraccini Raffinato 345 straight Brandy as part of P&C's IPSD special. I'm impressed with this pipe. The burnt sienna color of the finish matches well with the tortoise shell style stem. The band is two-tone gold and silver, and while it's ornate it's not garish. It's almost a little art deco. The finish is very smooth and glossy. Briar grain is nice, without any fills, no "varnish" as one reviewer noted is in my pipe's bowl. This one takes a 9mm filter, no adapter for the non-filtered experience was supplied, but you probably have one of those around if you're a no-filter type. Smokes nicely, good draw. Very light and easily clenchable if that's your style.

No where as nice as Stanwell ( on sale for $29.99) or of course Savinelli ( aprox $90.00). Can't see the $103.00 MSRP. On sale at less than $40 would be fair. Varnish covering interior of bowl not good either. Looks very nice online not so much in hand. Just started smoking pipe again after 20 year off smoking cigars so far so good. Have 2 Stanwell and two Savinellie's. Plus asorted pre smoked from 20 years past.

This is one of my favorite pipes. It is not only beautiful to look at, it feels wonderful to hold. It is solid and has a soft draw when it is smoked, and the tobacco favors come through in a very enjoyable way. S. Fischer

What a beauty this pipe is! The graceful style, the easy to hold bowl, the special light color of the briar, and the fanciful stem make this Baraccini easy on the eye. But it provides a smooth, dry smoke. It has quickly become one of my favorites.

Beautifully made, smokes great and reasonably priced. I am buying another.

This pipe is beautiful in shape and design, however it does not come with a 9mm filter inside or out? why this is not mentioned anywhere just delays my urge to smoke it another 8-15 days, after I had to call Pipes and Cigars to place my order for filters. Perhaps there is a disconnect somewhere?

Good pipe for the price

I had to drill the mouthpiece to get it to draw
