Savinelli Collection 1992
Does not have the plate engraved with the year of manufacture
In 1876 Achille Savinelli Sr. opened one of the first stores in the world that sold tobacco and smoking articles exclusively. As it would turn out, this was a successful venture. Forty years later, his grandson, Achille Jr. was born, and, having shown a keen interest and remarkable talent for pipe making, would eventually open the Savinelli pipe factory in 1948. The pipes produced in this factory garnered high praise and helped to establish the Italian pipe making market as formidable. Presently, the Savinelli Company is owned by Giancarlo, great-grandson to Achille Sr. The original shop, built near Piazzo Duomo in Italy, continues to operate to this day.
The Savinelli Collection Series are a yearly commemorative smoking pipe. These tobacco pipes, which Savinelli began producing in 1985, are highly collectable limited productions by this storied brand. Each pipe in this line is fitted with a brass nameplate that elegantly displays the year it was made for.
