Caminetto pipes have a rich history, starting in 1959. Caminetto pipes were carved by two main carvers: Guiseppe Ascorti (Peppino) and Luigi Radice, while Gianni Davoli was the first to agree to market their pipes. Through the ’60s and early ‘70s, these pipes were in high demand, and were contracted with both European and American distributers. During the mid to late ‘70s, the demand for these pipes skyrocketed, and pushed the small factory to its limits. The trio that had come to be known as Caminetto disbanded in 1979. Ascorti and Radice went on to make each their own line of pipes. Sergio pipes were made for a very limited time under the Ascorti name, but shortly thereafter the factory burned down.
