Savinelli, Autograph Pipes Ferrari have given the Italians a reasonable edge in the world of motoring but that's not all they strive at. Since 1876 Savinelli have kept the Italians at the pinnacle of the pipe manufacturing game! As if the normal range of Savinelli pipes doesn't stand them in high enough regard Savinelli also raise the bar with their Autograph range. They don't come much finer! Savinelli somehow manage to secure the finest Briar with absolute stunning grains. These are reserved for their most experienced craftsmen to make the one off freehand masterpieces labeled Autograph. There are many stunning freehands about but Savinelli seem to lead the way!
Savinelli Autograph 6 Briar Pipe The grain is an almost flawless straight grain as you would expect from a AA graded Savinelli with some very unique styling from the craftsman. The grain flows beautifully and flairs in perfect symmetry with the shape of the bowl and the shank for another truly stunning pipe. (we say that quite a lot with Savinelli autographs) The grain begins at the heel and flares up towards the top of the bowl. The rim of the bowl and the shank have both been sanded smooth and given a natural stain to accentuate the birds eye grain.
Balsa wood filter Unique to Savinelli is their Balsa wood filter system. The triangular shape does not form a seal in the bore of the pipe so allows an un-restricted full flavoured draw but the extremely porous and highly absorbent nature of the Balsa wood is very effective at removing moisture and impurities form the smoke. And for those who prefer a totally unfiltered smoke Savinelli provide a plug to block the system.
