Savinelli Ovalina Saab Marr Scuro 9mm Filter 75/150 (SAV942)

The Savinelli brand of pipes was first introduced by its original creator, Achille Savinelli Sr. In 1876, he opened a store in the heart of the Italian city, Milan, located near the famous Piazza Duomo.

Fourteen years later - Achille Savinelli's son, Carlo, took over and ran the store for over 50 years - developing very good relations with his clients. In 1918, Achille Junior was born. As a young man, Achille began his specialization 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 came back from the war, he decided to leave the father’s shop, he started to produce his own pipes and in 1948 he opened the Savinelli factory and workshop. The pipes produced there rapidly began gaining prestige in markets all over the world with their quality.

Ovalina is a straight pipe with an oval bowl and a captivating vintage look. Ovalina is proposed in a dark brown sandblasted finishing, a process obtained by working on the pipe several times to give it softness. It mounts an acrylic stem in different shades of bright yellow, a colour which was very popular back in the days. This is a limited edition series, with only 150 numbered pieces.

Pipe number 75/150.
