Savinelli Unica U61 Rusticated Bent Billiard Briar Pipe, 6mm, New

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.

Savinelli’s Unica series marks the first time in a long while that the make has produced completely new shapes, along with novel finishes to complement them. As such, these pipes are a special release, with limited quantities available. This “U61” is Savinelli’s new interpretation of the bent billiard, which deviates sharply from their standard 602 and 606 shapes. I’d call this one a stack billiard, actually, as it features a distinctly tall bowl with a narrow chamber – one ideal for flake cuts, though nonetheless well suited to just about any blend. Exclusive to the Unica series, it is dressed in a light, burgundy rustication and paired with Savinelli’s own custom-made cobalt blue acrylic stems.
