Description
SAVINELLI'S TURTLE INSPIRED FINISH: The Tortuga series is appropriately named after the Spanish word for tortoise, featuring a colorful, shell-patterned caramel and amber stem, complementing the deep walnut stain of the briar wood..MATCHING CHAMBER CAP: This briar pipe by Savinelli includes a matching acrylic cap with the same beautifully patterned turtle shell design..SAVINELLI BALSA FILTERS: A porous material, balsa wood filters are wonderful at absorbing moisture, as well as other lingering extras that can be found in tobacco smoke. Because the balsa tree grows incredibly fast, they can be easily replenished without damaging the environment..CHANGING THE FILTERS: To take apart your Savinelli pipe, rotate the stem clockwise and gently pull apart. Remove the filter, clean the tobacco pipe, then slide a new filter into place. To reassemble, rotate the stem clockwise and gently push back together..THE SAVINELLI STORY: The Savinelli story starts in Milan, Italy in 1876 when Achille Savinelli Sr. opened one of the world’s first stores exclusively selling tobacco accessories. It was there that Savinelli began first designing pipes, utilizing the same machines, techniques, and strategies still employed today.
