The Savinelli brand of pipes was first introduced by its original creator Achille Savinelli Sr. He opened a store in the heart of the Italian city of Milan in 1876 where it was located near the famous Piazza Duomo.
In January 1890, Achille Savinelli's son, Carlo, took over and ran the store for over 50 years where he was able to develop very good relations with his clients. In 1918 Achille Junior was born. and as a young man, Achille began his specialisation in pipe making in the small workshop in the back of the store where he would work on designing and inventing the pipes. It was in that workshop that the first genuine Savinelli pipe came to light.
When Achille Jr’s came back from the war, he decided to leave the father’s shop and he started to produce its own pipes and in 1948 he opened the Savinelli factory/workshop. The pipes produced there rapidly began gaining prestige in markets all over the world with there quality.
Savinelli pipes are 100% Made in Italy with values including history, passion, fancy, elegance, and attention to every detail which makes these objects stand the test of time.
The ginger's favourite are beautiful pipes that consist of an extra long mouthpiece, which is a marbled stem similar in colour to a root of ginger. The bowl is a classic billiard shape, this is the rusticated finish. Like most Savinelli pipes this takes the 6mm balsa filter.
