Savinelli Silver pipe, smooth brown finish, with black ebonite mouthpiece, classic curved 606 Ks model. The pipe is NOT designed to be smoked with a 9 mm balsa filter. The pipe is very elegant and stylish, a classic that never gets old. It is medium in size and stands out for its bowl, which is capable of excellent smokeability in any situation, whether walking or sitting comfortably in an armchair. The Silver series was created in the 1970s and consisted of pipes with beautiful flaming. The satisfaction of holding them in your hand is maximum, even when unlit. The precious silver that gives the series its name gives it a superior class. It is a vintage pipe that is no longer produced regularly. The pipe is used, smoked very well and not too much, mainly with natural tobaccos or English mixtures. Rating 8 out of 10. The pipe has no original bag or box. The pipe has a few scratches here and there, which, however, do not detract from its beauty.
Achille Savinelli opened his shop in Milan in 1876. With quality products and courteous service, the shop was an immediate success. In 1920, his son Carlo introduced Savinelli-branded pipes, which he had manufactured in the Varese area. In 1948, the Savinelli pipe factory was founded in Barasso, where it still resides today. The brand quickly became prestigious throughout the world and, in the 1950s and 1960s, around a thousand pipes were produced every day. The designs were inspired by classic English models, with the introduction of some variations that would become 'typical' Savinelli models. Alongside these pipes, Savinelli produced the Autograph, which were also made entirely by hand with imaginative designs that still bore the brand's hallmark. A characteristic feature of Savinelli pipes is the balsa system, a balsa wood filter that absorbs moisture from the smoke and makes it more pleasant. The system works but is little used by smokers. Savinelli has been producing pipes for over 140 years and, although snubbed by some 'expert' smokers, it still creates real gems that deserve attention and respect.
The pipes we sell second-hand are only from the best and most prestigious brands and are rigorously selected by me from private collections. The pipes in question must have been well cared for and smoked, generally smoked little, and are sanitised before being put up for sale. In fact, once selected, they are disinfected and the interior sterilised, the mouthpiece is sanded and the entire pipe polished, including the bowl and mouthpiece. Casaropipe guarantees that at this point they are ready to continue to give satisfaction to a new enthusiast.
The pipe for sale is exactly as shown in the photos. Once sold, as it is handmade and therefore unique, the pipe will be removed from the website. The actual colour of the pipe may vary slightly from the photo as each monitor has its own colour tone. The dimensions have been measured accurately but may vary by a millimetre, either more or less.
