Savinelli: Fantasia Rusticated Brown (626) (6mm) Tobacco Pipe

While Savinelli features several bent Apples on their standard shape chart, this "626" is their signature, archetypal rendition. It's also the trimmest version offered by the Italian marque, presenting a leaner disposition compared to, say, the "636 KS" and "642" shapes and leaning more into the traditional English style. Defined by a slightly bulging bowl, stretched heel and transition, and lithely bent stem, this iconic "626" is a versatile piece of moderate size and natural in hand feel — perfect for those interested in an Italian-made pipe but one of more restrained, classic proportions.

Released in 2019, Savinelli's Fantasia series follows the success of 2018's Oceano line to present yet another vibrant color palette from the Italian marque. Much of this pipe's fantastical appeal comes via the acrylic stem: It features a mosaic-like pattern of burnt sienna and shimmering cerulean hues. It's paired here to a chocolate-stained, striated rustication, matching well with the darker tones of the mouthpiece.
