Savinelli Autograph Exceptionale Pipes like this do not come onto the market very often, We have had some incredible Savinelli Autographs recently but none have been of this supreme quality. The whole factory came to a standstill to witness this piece being finished and they were in awe of the final results. The grain is a flawless flame grain with a beautiful and characterful bark as you would expect from a AAA graded Savinelli. This has been captured perfectly by Savinelli's finest Artisan craftsmen. The rim of the bowl has been delicately sandblasted to bring out the natural burr for another truly stunning pipe. (we say that quite a lot with Savinelli autographs)
