Facts, not a grade. We do not score a pipe out of ten: a number would rank a restored pipe above an honest one, and restoration is exactly what this hobby prices down. Every line above is checkable by anyone holding the pipe. Lines marked Faridunhill standing declaration rest on our published, dated statement of shop practice (v1.0, 2026-07-29) — not on an inspection of this individual pipe. It is one document, in public, that you can hold us to.
The entry
This Savinelli De Luxe pipe represents the Italian manufacturer's quality production in the straight billiard form, designated by the shape number 505 KS indicating a king-size version. The pipe features the Siena sand finish, a textured rustication that provides both visual interest and tactile grip. As an estate piece, it carries the characteristic stampings of the Savinelli brand and De Luxe line, positioned within the company's extensive catalog of shaped pipes. The straight billiard shape exemplifies classic pipe design with its cylindrical bowl and traditional proportions, while the KS designation suggests a larger scale than standard models.
