Sasso Rusticated (207) (6mm) Tobacco Pipe

Savinelli's "207" Apple is one of their more traditionally inclined and noticeably English-inspired designs, defined by its broad, plump bowl and an arrow straight shank-and-stem arrangement. It's also one of the few straight Apple shapes offered by the Italian marque, the other primarily being their "202." Where the two versions differ is in their proportions: The "207" tends to be a touch shorter in length but features a larger bowl while the "202" is slightly longer and trimmer, displaying a smaller bowl up front.

Italian for "stone", the Sasso series from Savinelli pairs a number of the Italian marque's signature shapes to stems of marble-hued acrylic, bringing to mind classic sculptures of today and yesteryear. A light blue accent wraps the base of said stem, adding color contrast to the overall piece. The Sasso series pipes are offered in a smooth or rusticated finish, with the latter presented here, providing ample texture to explore.
