Savinelli Autograph Partially Sandblasted Bent Dublin (6) (1970s-1980s) Tobacco Pipe

Rocking on a nicely rounded transition between the heel and the front of the bowl, this inspired Savinelli Autograph from a few decades back boasts a bowl that rises up to 2.69 inches, and I find the sense of the serpentine positively palpable. Unlike the Ophiophagus hannah (King Cobra), which can only rear its head roughly 30% of its total body length, this beauty approaches about a 40% rise. Take it from a man who has had nothing but 5 feet of distance between him and a 14' King at full hood, this one is considerably more charming (not to mentioned much nicer of grain).
