Savinelli, the worlds No.1 selling pipe 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! Putting the Italian legacy behind us for a minute if you where to look at the Savinelli range you could be forgiven for thinking they are a classic high end British made pipe. We have received a number of comments over the years from our high end pipe customers who believe the quality of the briar and the finish of Savinelli pipes exceed what is strongly regarded as the epitome of the pipe world and they don't demand the same price tag (No names mentioned as we are British through and through)
Savinelli Oceano Briar Pipes: The Savinelli Oceano are a stunning range of pipes released in 2018. Italy has over 4500 miles of some of the most beautiful coastline in the world, from the Adriatic Sea to the northeast, the Ionian Sea to the southeast, the Tyrrhenian Sea to the southwest, and the Ligurian Sea to the northwest. It's easy to see where they took their inspiration for the Oceano line. Available in both a smooth Burgundy and Savinelli's classic Rusticated finish. Each pipe has a subtle white band that transitions into an eye catching blue and white marbled effect stem which looks like swirling sea foam. The 320 is a semi-bent with an exceptionally large bowl for those long fireside sessions, It's rounded shapes and lack of sharp lines makes it extremely pleasant to hold.
6mm 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 unrestricted full flavoured draw but the extremely porous and highly absorbent nature of the Balsa wood is very effective at removing moisture and impurities from the smoke. Savinelli include an adaptor for those who prefer a totally unfiltered smoke.
MARBLED STEMS:The marbled mouthpiece in this picture is a one off and is unlikely to be the exact mouthpiece you will receive. There is variation from pipe to pipe with substantial differences in colours, patterns and marbling.
