Italian Estates: Savinelli Punto Oro Classic Bordeaux (803 KS) Tobacco Pipe

The "803 KS" and "804 KS" shapes from Savinelli are the Italian marque's boldest renditions of the Lumberman and Canadian, respectively. Found here is the "803 KS" Lumberman, marked by an elongated, oval shank and abbreviated saddle stem. A robust, Billiard bowl dominates the profile at the end, offering more palm-filling substance and chamber depth than Savinelli's "806" Lumberman.

The Punto Oro and Punto Oro Gold series begin Savinelli's highest-quality lines within its standard lineup, topped by the prestigious Giubileo d'Oro. Each Punto Oro pipe is fashioned from Mediterranean briar that's been aged for more than three years before passing ninety separate crafting and inspecting processes to ensure the strictest standards of quality — taking into consideration engineering, construction, and grain orientation. Only one tenth of all Savinelli pipes meet the Punto Oro's rigid criteria, making its pipes some of the Italian marque's most prized and collectible pieces. With a number of traditional finishes presented across the Punto Oro Gold and Punto Oro Classic lines, this particular Punto Oro piece wears a red wine-tinged Bordeaux stain, offering a traditional aesthetic sure never to go out of style.
