Savinelli: Porto Cervo Rusticated (806) (6mm) Tobacco Pipe

Savinelli's "806" is a traditional take on the classic Lumberman, similar to the Italian marque's "803 KS"" and "803 EX" designs in terms of shaping, but the "806" features significantly smaller proportions throughout. The Billiard bowl is classically shaped and transitions to a slightly elongated, oval shank and an abbreviated saddle stem, both elements accentuating the bowl's visual prominence in profile. The "806" is an ideal choice for those drawn to the traditional Lumberman but prefer a more conveniently-sized and versatile rendition.

A town bathed in opulence, Porto Cervo is located on the northern coast of the isle of Sardinia, just to the west of Italy. With a population of under 500, the seaside resort is marked by lavish accommodations and luxury yachts, the Hotel Cala di Volpe in particular known for being featured in the 1977 James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me. The village's reputation for class and elegance inspired this line from Savinelli, dressing this piece in a glossy, dark-stained rustication, accented by trim brass accoutrements and smooth-polished briar at the rim and shank end.
