Savinelli: Oliva Rusticated Natural (315 KS) (6mm) Tobacco Pipe

Savinelli's interpretation of the Prince, the "315 KS" provides all the plump, in-hand comfort of the shape, with more emphasis placed on the heel than classic English versions. The heel extends forward for a broader base and lower center of gravity, while the moderately sized shank leads to a willowy tapered stem, and the vertically compressed bowl presents a lower profile in silhouette. It maintains a staunch profile, making for a bolder rendition compared to traditional Anglo-French interpretations.

Introduced in 2023, Savinelli's Oliva series is a fetching showcase of the Italian firm's aptitude with natural finishes and custom-cast, proprietary acrylic stems and a commemoration of Italy's olive tradition. Each pipe in the Oliva series features an unstained, virgin stummel and a striated rustication across the bowl for a bark-like texture evocative of the olive tree. Additionally, each pipe is topped by a pale, olive-green acrylic mouthpiece, which adds a touch of complementary color to the entire composition and furthers the line's distinctive theme.
