Bellezia

Bellezia Tobacco Shop is a tobacconist in Buffalo/Amherst New York. It was started by Milton Kalnitz in the 1970's, and named by his son, in part. As Kalnitz put it, “Pipes, to me, are kind of romantic,” he said. “I asked my son to find a nice romantic name in Spanish. I found belleza, which means beautiful. I learned I couldn’t use that name, though, because it was already being used. So, I added a ‘I’ and took Bellezia, which actually means beautiful aunt in Italian.” Depriest, Keaton T. "Bellezia Tobacco Shops reopens at new location with larger product selection." Amherst Bee 29 Aug 2012 .
Milton Kalnitz is a master pipemaker who continues to make pipes from century old briar in the store. He has crafted pipes since the late 1960's. During that time he personally made pipes for the president, actors, athletes and dignitaries around the world. He used only the finest Grecian plateau and each pipe is a one of a kind hand crafted masterpiece and many are highlighted with a 14K gold dot on the stem. He only makes about 50 per year and so the value of these can only go up due to the limited supply.
Kalnitz is also the father of pipemaker Brian Kalnitz, known as the house pipemaker of Smokers Haven of the Southtowns in West Seneca, New York.

Ben Rodgers

Howard Rodgers, the son of Ben Rodgers, provided information regarding his father on a pipe-focussed newsgroup in 2012.
Howard Rodgers stated,
Ben Rodgers (1904-1991) was the greatest man I've ever known. My father owned a small pipes and tobacco store (1930-1960) just off of Times Square in Manhattan. Although 1083 Ave. of The Americas (right next to Horn and Hardart Cafeteria and across the street from Bryant Park) was a small shop, he utilized every square inch and had an amazing selection of pipes in all price ranges, including his own brands, as well as tobacco, imported cigarettes, etc. Even though his shop was small, he had an extremely wide reach that included a mail order business where he shipped all over the country. Customers would travel long distances to see him. When I was growing up, I used to work there on Saturdays. He taught me about retailing and that the customer was always right and to treat everyone with respect. This helped me to grow up and be a successful retailer in a different industry.

Benaderet's

"Benaderet's Cigarette, Pipe and Tobacco Shop" was located at 566 California Street in San Francisco, California. Looks like their final address was 215 Sutter St., San Francisco, CA as seen in street photos and on matchbook covers.
"Benaderet's Inc., was California's oldest pipe and tobacco store when it went out of business in 1980. Sam Benaderet was a tobacconist from New York City who came to San Francisco in 1915 to work at the Panama Pacific International Exposition. An immigrant to the United States from Turkey, Mr. Benaderet decided that he liked the West Coast's Mediterranean like climate. After the Exposition closed, he stayed to open his own tobacco business. This new firm produced custom private-label cigarettes for men's clubs. A lavish retail store was opened in the late 1920's that quickly became a mecca for tobacco connoisseurs."

Beney, Ltd.

The Beney Company was founded by Robert E. Beney, who invented and sold the first Beney mechanical lighter in 1919, three years prior to Dunhill. Beney also designed an automatic mechanism for Dunhill's hunting horn lighter, which operated by inverting the horn. 
The company was sold in 1938 and renamed Beney, Ltd., operating in Saville Works, Croydon Road, Beckenham, Kent. Beney, Ltd. produced pipes under the name Saville and also owned H. Perkins & Sons, who at one point made Ascot pipes.

Benner

Nicknamed "Benner", Bent Nielsen was born in 1944 in the northern part of Jutland. His parents moved to the Roskilde-distric when Benner was young, and has called that are home ever since. He currently lives in Tune, a small village south of Roskilde.
Benner started working as a carpenter, but met Karl Erik in the early '70s, who hired Benner to help meet the huge demand for fancy pipes. He worked in Karl Eric's workshop for 7 years, and made a lot of the fancy pipes being sent to the USA at that time. He was later working for the pipe maker Zetterwig when he was contacted by S. Bang to assist with making pipes for the German market. Benner made a set of pipes to show the German importer only to discover they were looking for classic shapes, not the fancy shapes that Benner had made. In response Benner took on the new challenge of making classic shapes. This served him well as it turns out, as Benner is known more for his classic shapes than the fancy pipes of the early 70's.
After providing pipes for the German market for a few years, Benner started making pipes for Pipe-Dan, where he met Tom Eltang. At the end of '70s, Benner went through a difficult time in his life, which included a divorce. He left pipe making, sold his machines, and returned to carpentry, which he did for 30 years.
Pipe making had its hold on Benner, and he kept making pipes in his spare time in Karl Erik's workshop. He eventually wanted his own workshop again and bought a lathe from Tom Eltang. He eventually bought the other machines he need, rebuilding many of them. With his full-time job he had little time to work on pipes, and the few he made were sold locally.
At the beginning of 2011 Benner retired from his carpentry work, which gave him more time for pipe making and a larger audience for his pipes. In addition to Briar, Benner makes pipes out of olive wood. He buys the olive wood from Crete when he visits on a yearly vacation. Benner bought a lot of the briar he uses when Karl Erik died in 2004. His stems are made from acrylic, cumberland, ebonite, or artificial amber and the pipes are stamped Benner, sometimesHandmade in Denmark, with the letter B on the stems.

Bennington Tobacconist

Bennington Tobacconist is located in Sarasota and Boca Raton, Florida, and has sold several lines of pipes over the years made by fine companies, including the Bennington Royale, made by Savinelli, the Bennington Belfast, made by Peterson, and others. 
William Bennington founded Bennington Tobacconist in 1965. With careful consideration, the location was determined. Saint Armands Circle in Sarasota, Florida (on the West Coast). Mr. Bennington had the foresight to institute custom hand mixed tobacco blends and hand rolled cigars. Being a family-operated tobacco shop, his three sons, Jack, Jim and Garry grew up in the business (twenty years of experience). They learned the meaning of service, quality and hard work.
As the business grew, there was a need to expand the operation. A three year search was conducted for the perfect location, which would represent the image and the market desired. The ultimate location was Boca Raton in Palm Beach County (located on the east coast of Florida), since the city catered to an exclusively wealthy local and international clientele. An existing tobacco shop was obtained, which had been established for fifteen years in the heart of downtown Boca Raton. The shop was purchased in January 7, 1980. This is where Jim Bennington became a notable presence not only in the community but in South Florida. Jim graduated from the University of Florida with a degree in Industrial Systems Engineering. Although he did give engineering a chance, the prospect of working in the family business presented a much more interesting challenge.
Today anyone can pick up a phone, fax or in an e-mail put in an order in from anywhere in the World. Bennington Tobacconist is continually growing at an average rate of 20% a year. Their constant awareness of projecting the Bennington name and the quality of the product lines they carry has directed them into servicing hotels, restaurants and country clubs. Bennington Tobacconist has extended itself very successfully in this area. Two, of many, prestigious hotels now serviced are the Boca Raton Resort & Club (in Boca Raton) and the Doral Golf Resort & Spa (in Miami).
Traditionally, Jim Bennington has continued to honor the family philosophy that quality products should be represented in a proper image.https://bocabenningtons.com/benningtonstory.php

Bentley

<revive zone="19" align="right" caption="An excellent selection of Danish Estate pipes is available at The Danish Pipe Shop (A Pipedia Underwriter)" />
This is the production Brand of Hans Jonny "Former" Nielsen. When the U. S. pipe demand for quality handmade "freehand" pipes diminished, W.Ø. Larsen in Copenhagen sent their several workshop pipemakers home to work out of their house. Former who was the Larsen foreman at the time, eventually went to Germany and started the Bentley line of production pipes made on frasing machines, several at a time. Some years ago he returned to Denmark with this type of equipment and continues to make these production pipes in his current workshop in between making his famous handmade pipes.
Bentley could also be a name of a line of Kaywoodie seconds.
4/17/2014
*Former went to Kleinlutzel, Switzerland (just over the border from Germany) and took over a pipe fabrication in the employ of Herman Lane, making the Bentley pipes (circa 1986).

Bernhard Julie

Bernhard is a young new Danish pipe maker. He had his debut at the Chicago Pipe Show 2003. His pipes is often quite rustic and masculine with full rustication on the bowl and shank and sometimes also partly on the stem. This is pipes that you can use and not being afraid of harming it. A nice feature for a change.
 Bernhard is the son of Anne Julie and since he is highly busy with many projects, pipe making is for now a part time occupation. courtesy, Bisgaard-pipes.com

A Cachimbos Bertoldi nasceu em 1984, com os irmãos Idelfonso e Valmor Bertoldi, com o nome de Bertoldi & Bertoldi Ltda. A produção inicial era uma média diária de 10 cachimbos, e se produzia apenas o modelo reto "Elite.
Após um ano de atividade, deram-se inicio a fabricação de cachimbos no modelo curvo. Para isso fora necessário a contratação de um funcionário e investimentos em pesquisas e novas técnicas de produção, para que os cachimbos da Só Cachimbos pudessem competir com a mesma qualidade que os importados.
A segunda medida importante tomada nesta fase era respeito a piteira. Normalmente os cachimbos nacionais naquela época usavam a medida de 5 a 6 mm, o que tornava um pouco agressivo e desagradável na boca. Sendo assim, adaptamos as piteiras nacionais com as mesmas medidas do cachimbo importado, que são de 4 mm, o tornando muito mais confortável.
Hoje, a Só Cachimbos pertence apenas a Idelfonso Bertoldi, produzindo uma média de 150 modelos de cachimbos e contando com 22 funcionários diretos.
Para atender a demanda de sofisticados e apreciadores clientes, as madeiras para a produção dos cachimbos são rigorosamente selecionadas, com exigente critério de qualidade. A Só Cachimbos é hoje o único importador de Urze, Briar ou Bruyère, a madeira Erica Arborea, a mesma utilizada na Europa, produzindo os cachimbos “Briar” da linha Maestro.
A Só Cachimbos exporta para Portugal, Espanha, Argentina e Uruguai, com uma produção hoje em torno de 14.000 cachimbos/mês, sendo 6.000 os modelos considerados de primeira linha.

Bertram

The story of Bertram pipes begins with a German pipemaker named Bertram Goldmann who emigrated to the United States in 1874 and settled down in Washington D.C.
In 1927 Sydney Bertram Goldman opened a new factory, the Bertram Pipe Shop. The strategically favorable situation in the political center of the USA procured many illustrious customers from politics and fine arts to the well-respected brand: Joseph Stalin, General Douglas MacArthur, Edward G. Robinson or Red Skelton just to name a few. President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered his cigarette tips there. Bertram acquired the surname "The Nation’s Pipemaker".
BertramCasedMeerjpg.jpg
BertramCasedMeerjpg2.jpg
Over three generations Bertram’s enjoyed such a good reputation in the USA that their own production wasn't able to keep up with the demand and pipes had to be bought in addition from notable suppliers. In reference to this Bertram in later years was also apostrophized "The Astley's of America".
Their pipes seem have been graded by a numbering system, i.e. 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, etc., with the higher numbers being more desirable. The grading system also indicated the price for which it was to be sold. A '10' sold for $1.00, a '20' for $2.00, and so on.
The company suffered a tragic blow at the end of the 1960s. During the riots following the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. the factory was plundered and set on fire. Though some efforts - mainly by Bertram employees - were made to restart Bertram never really recovered and the owning family decided to quit pipe production and close the shop in 1977.

Bessai

John Bessai was a long time pipemaker, repairman and tobacco shop owner who operated his pipe shop at the "Old Arcade" in Cleveland, Ohio. The shop was opened in approximately 1898. It was a small 2-room shop where he hand-crafted his own pipes in the back room and could work when customers were not there. 
Like so many other shop made brand, John Bessai's limited production was quickly acquired by regular customers and thus his craftsmanship remained little known outside of Ohio and the Midwest. While his name is known by pipe collectors in the Midwest, his work is seldom seen elsewhere!
He died before 1969. Nevertheless, John Bessai left behind a small number of classic shaped pipes; all were made on-site. They are praised worthy of collecting and reflecting skills well beyond most American pipe makers.
John Bessai's logo "JB" appeared as one letter as the "back" of the "J" and the "back" of the "B" share a single line. The logo was stamped on the stem and on the left side of the shank.
His son Herb Bessai took over the business and also continued making pipes. He closed the shop in about 1978.

Bewlay

The English brand of Bewlay & Co. Ltd. (formerly Salmon & Gluckstein Ltd.), was in business from the early 20th century until the 1950s. The brand ended up being sold and taken over by Imperial Tobacco Co.. The shop chain closed in the 1980s but there seems to be one shop still in business on Carr Lane in the city of Hull.
Bewlay pipes were made by prestigious firms. Notably Barling, Charatan, Loewe & Co., Sasieni, Huybrecht, and Orlik. So understandably, the English considered a Bewlay pipe a quality pipe. A thread on Pipesmagizine.com may be interest to those looking at who might have made a particular Bewlay pipe: PipesMagizine.com Bewlay Thread
