Italy

A pleasant example of the Italian refinement, elegance and lightness: very nice lightweight small-sized billiard of the one of the most appreciated series from “Savinelli”.

The pipe markings are “SAVINELLI \ STRAIGHT GRAIN \ C2”, “105 \ ITALY”. The length is 15.4 cm (6.06″), bowl’s height is 3.7 cm (1.46″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.1 cm (1.22″), internal diameter is 1.7 cm (0.67″). The depth is 3.1 cm (1.22″) and this pipe weights 22 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter. The bowl had a couple of chips on the left side (from the smokers perspective) which were carefully patched but of course the trace is still visible.
