Rossi: Notte (8670) Tobacco Pipe

A firm-heeled bent Billiard, Rossi's "8670" presents a bold profile that's handsomely classic, in line with Savinelli's "670 KS" design. Traditionally inclined and exceptionally well-balanced, the stout bowl houses a capacious chamber while the stem's bend allows for a comfortable, hands-free smoking posture. Not as muscular as the marque's "8616" or as diminutive as the "8601," the "8670" instead strikes an ideal balance between the two, offering a respectably robust interpretation that's also capable of being clenched with ease.

Introduced to Rossi's portfolio in 2019, the Notte series presents an alluring palette of dark, stormy hues. Meaning "night" in Italian, the Notte offers an aptly dark aesthetic, pairing a smoky, smooth stain with a jet-black acrylic mouthpiece — a trim brass accent ring adding just a touch of brightness, like a sliver of moon at midnight. The stain, while dark, still reveals the briar's natural grain on this piece, emulating the look of swirling clouds within a night's black sky for a powerful and mysterious disposition.
