Tre Rusticated (105) Tobacco Pipe

Savinelli's "105" is the Italian marque's trimmest Billiard design, its svelte proportions and streamlined shaping reminiscent of classic French renditions. Much like their "106" design, the "105" features a slender, arrow straight shank and stem configuration paired to a bowl that's around a Group 2 in size. However, the "105" is even more lightweight and caters to those who prefer diminutive, traditionally inclined pipes.

The vast majority of Savinelli's portfolio consists of pipes drilled with a 6mm airway to accommodate the Italian marque's proprietary balsa filters. While these filtered Savinelli pipes come with an included adapter for use without a filter, some pipe smokers prefer not to deal with that added accessory. Thankfully, Savinelli offers the Tre series: It's a line devoted to pipes with a 3mm draft hole, tre meaning "three" in Italian. No filters. No adapters. Just briar. With this particular offering dressed in the line's chocolate-hued rustication with the added elegance of a trim brass accent ring to contrast the stummel's rugged texture.

Note: While all of our other pipes are photographed individually, these are not, and you may expect some reasonable cosmetic variation between the example we've photographed and the pipe you've received.
