Arena (8601) (6mm) Tobacco Pipe

A modestly sized bent Billiard appropriate for dropping into a jacket pocket, Rossi's "8601" is a sturdy take on the pipe chart standard, corresponding to Savinelli's "601," with a wide heel, high-set transition, and slightly tapering bowl. While quite muscular and visually significant in its shaping, the shank of this "8601" doesn't over tighten the transition, extending at a 45 degree angle, almost to the height of the rim, for a comfortable thumb rest between shank and bowl.

Marked by a crisp, finely detailed sandblast, Rossi's Arena series presents a rugged yet refined aesthetic, distinguished by rich grain texture and a classic, understated palette. As the marque's first sandblasted line, it highlights a new expression of Rossi's craftsmanship, offering a selection of their iconic shapes with timeless Italian character .

Note: While all of our other pipes are photographed individually, these are not, and you may expect some reasonable cosmetic variation between the example we've photographed and the pipe you've received.
