The Calabresi line of pipes were produced by Thomas Cristiano in Tampa, Florida. A sub-brand of Calabresi was Londonaire. The pipes were stamped "Calabresi" and generally bore a letter C on the stem. The Londonaire pipes were apparently made in both England and Italy, stamped Londonaire, and had an anchor on the stem.

To further add to the confusion, there is also a pipe called the HOS Londonier
