Savinelli Autograph Freehand (8) (Unsmoked) Tobacco Pipe

Savinelli Autographs are, as a rule, rather large pipes. That having been said, this particular example is a big one even by that standard - the bowl positively towers, and the chamber is about on par in depth with the Mariana trench. Of course, as an "8" this is a member of the upper tiers of the Autograph grading, so perhaps Savinelli felt it behooved them to throw in a whole lot of extra briar when it came to their most luxurious offerings - one hardly pictures a fuel-sipping compact when hearing names like Lincoln, Cadillac, and Chrysler after all.
