Savinelli: Giubileo d'Oro Sandblasted (105) (Unica) Tobacco Pipe

Savinelli's "105" is the Italian marque's trimmest Billiard design, its svelte proportions and streamlined shaping reminiscent of classic French renditions. Much like their "106" design, the "105" features a slender, arrow straight shank-and-stem configuration paired to a bowl that's around a Group 2 in size. However, the "105" is even more lightweight and caters to those who prefer diminutive, traditionally inclined pipes, with this particular Unica example fitted to a colorful, acrylic stem.

The highest tier within Savinelli's standard lineup, the Giubileo d'Oro series presents the Italian marque's superlative pieces. Meaning "Golden Jubilee" in Italian, the Giubileo d'Oro series denotes Savinelli pipes par excellence, and the strict standards determining Giubileo d'Oro pieces mean that only 0.1% of Savinelli's total production is found worthy of the line's iconic three brass dot stem logo. As such, these pipes showcase choice grain patterns and exquisite finishes — from concisely defined sandblasts to gorgeously arrayed flame grain and birdseye. This particular example wears the line's sandblasted finish, highlighting the briar's natural grain in a traditional and textured palette, and comes complete with a matching tamper.
