Savinelli Estella Rusticated Freehand Brandy Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked

Description

It is probably fair to say that Savinelli is Italy’s most famous pipe brand. Founded in Milan in 1876 by Achille Savinelli, the brand has continuously offered high quality pipes for nearly 150 years. Though various Savinelli lines have come and gone over the years, the brand has always been notable for putting out classically styled pipes with a distinctly Italian twist.

While long discontinued, Savinelli’s Estella line a cult favorite among collectors and smokers. We don’t get too many of them here, but when we do, they’re in and out of the door pretty quickly. They tend to be on the large side, as with this freehand brandy shape, and the rustication is very rugged, even when compared to other Italian approaches. This one’s design is, for me at least, a quintessential Estella: a large, moderately classical freehand, dressed in a tan rustic finish and paired with golden Lucite.

This pipe is completely unsmoked, with an original bowl coating.
