Savinelli: Bianca Smooth (645 KS) (6mm) Tobacco Pipe

Savinelli's "645 KS" is a wide, stout take on the bent Brandy, the bowl prioritizing breadth over height, yet still boasting a respectably deep chamber within. The bowl wears its waistline low before subtly tapering up toward the rim, while the transition offers ample room for the thumb to rest. Unlike the Italian marque's "628" bent Brandy, the "645 KS" is a low-slung take on the classic shape with the bowl more Apple-esque in its curvature, and it displays a greater degree of bend compared to the "144 KS." It's an ideal choice for pipe smokers who prefer robust, substantial designs that also remain balanced and lightweight enough to be clenched comfortably in the jaw.

Many of Savinelli's series draw inspiration from an outside theme, whether from color palettes, like the Arcobaleno, or from cuisine, like the Caramella, or from Italian culture, like the Roma and Trevi. The Bianca, meaning "white" in Italian, is one of the marque's more subtly inspired lines. It's presented here in a traditional, dark walnut stain, with a trio of nickel accent rings separated by creamy white acrylic to define the series, catering to those who prefer more reserved, classic finishes.
