In case this is not clear from the picture, you're supposed to tamp with the entire (as opposed to dismantled) tamper, thanks to the metal heel it has. You unscrew and remove the pick only when needed. Please note that grain and color may vary from what you see in the above picture; however, there are two available color stains: Dark red and dark brown. |

I find this a great tamper for a reason: It gives you two tampers, and not one. Let me explain. You can use the metal tamper inside the briar case, or you can use the entire case (without unscrewing any part) as a wooden tamper. Please note that grain and color may vary from what you see in the above picture. |

Out of all the pocket pipe rests there are, this is my favorite. It has so much class, and the quality of the one offered here is as good as it gets. When you open the rest, you see there is a layer of soft material which is to accommodate the pipe bowl. I find that it's suitable for any shape, whether straight, bent, or in-between. There are two color stains available: Natural and Brown. Please note that grain and color may vary from what you see in the above picture. |

I was so excited to find those boxes in Armellini's display cabinet maybe because I'm a traditionalist and believe that matches will always be part of the fascination of our hobby. Having said that, I was very disappointed when I learned that the dozen or so boxes were the last; the production of these boxes ceased some time ago. So, once my limited stock is gone, this accessory will no longer be available... forever. If you're interested in purchasing one, please read the measurements carefully, since they're made for matchboxes slightly smaller than the standard ones. A box that measures up to 51x36x14.5mm would fit fine. There are two colors available: Natural and brown. Please note that grain and color may vary from what you see in the above picture. |

This is definitely one of the neatest accessories for pipe smokers. As a briar enthusiast, I personally would never use any cardholder made of any material other than briar, now that I have found one. The springy internal metal part is meant to both keep your cards in place and at the same time, it guarantees the ease of sliding a card out. "Hello, the name's Bond... James Bond" ;-) All the available cardholders come in the attractive brown stain, and most, if not all, have excellent grain. Finally, each holder comes in a very elegant sleeve and an outer cardboard foldable box, both carrying the name Armellini (the sleeve is like the ones used for pipes, but smaller). Please note that the grain and color may vary from what you see in the above picture. |

Wouldn't be classy and elegant to use a pen that matches your pipe, at least in the aspect that counts most: The material?! Well, here's your chance. I understand from Wilma Armellini that making these pens is not only costly but also painstaking. When I went to visit, this is the ONLY set there was, and of course, I had to grab it. The set, with a ballpoint pen and a fountain one, comes in a presentation case, which is made of hard cardboard, coated with imitation briar plastic. Of course, the metal you see is real silver, with the authentication stamp. As this is the only set I have, and if you decide to buy it, you will get the set featured in the pictures above. |
