About This Pipe
While all Savinelli Autographs are totally shaped by hand, and therefore are as individual as snowflakes (ok, I hate that phrase as well) this pipe is rather different, even taking into account the fact that it is an Autograph. Highly compressed along the vertical axis and sporting something of a contrail like rake to the shank and bit, I think that there is little doubt that the carver of this pipe was going for a feel of implied momentum. I sure hope so, for that is what he got in spades. A very nice shock wave of grain starts at the heel, and spreads through the rest of the front and sides.
