Savinelli: Punto Oro Classic Natural (310 KS) Tobacco Pipe

A classic, utilitarian shape, the Poker is an inherently practical design, with a character that makes it perfect for all smoking settings. Savinelli's "310 KS" is an iconic rendition of the form. Its robust bowl seems even larger in contrast to the relatively diminutive shank diameter, fitting in well to the marque's typical Italian neoclassic shaping style. Canted forward, the bowl is balanced with a flat heel so the pipe can sit easily, while the rounded rim adds an accenting design element that provides a little more vertical presence.

The Punto Oro and Punto Oro Gold series begin Savinelli's highest-quality lines within its standard lineup, topped by the prestigious Giubileo d'Oro. Each Punto Oro pipe is fashioned from Mediterranean briar that's been aged for more than three years before passing ninety separate crafting and inspecting processes to ensure the strictest standards of quality — taking into consideration engineering, construction, and grain orientation. Less than two percent of all Savinelli pipes meet the Punto Oro's rigid criteria, making its pipes some of the Italian marque's most prized and collectible pieces. With a number of traditional finishes presented across the Punto Oro Gold and Punto Oro Classic lines, this particular Punto Oro piece wears a timeless, natural finish, drawing focus to the briar's natural grain pattern, highlighted by the expert finishing work of Savinelli's artisans.
