[[La Torre]] pipes were made by [[Ernesto Ossola]], a pipemaker about the 1970s. | |||
Mr. Ernesto Ossola was a craftsman that made pipes with his "La Torre" logo until his death in 2010. | |||
Italian pipe blogger, Gusto Tobacco, did some fairly detailed original research into Ernesto Ossola and La Torre pipes, which is available here: [https://www-gustotabacco-it.translate.goog/storia/2652-la-torre-di-ernesto-ossola-una-storia-da-ricordare/?_x_tr_sl=it&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc '''Ernesto Ossola's tower: a story to remember''']. This is the Google translation, which leaves a bit to be desired, but it's readable. | |||
''Contributors, it would be great to expand our article here on Pipedia based on this research. Please feel free to dive in and do that if you are interested.'' | |||
== Stamping == | |||
Tower logo + "La Torre" + "Personal" (both in script) + (usually) "N1". Or "La Torre" + "DIAMANTE" | |||
