Savinelli Birdseye Briar Pipe - 673

The birdseye grain on this 673 bowl is even more stunning in person than in the photos. It smokes cool and dry from the first puff, and the light copper finish makes the wood texture pop beautifully.

The grain on this one is genuinely tight and uniform around the bowl, exactly what you’d hope for from a piece vetted for birdseye orientation. It smokes cool and dry for the first month, though the stem fits a touch loose in the shank until it warms up. Happy with the shape and the way it sits in t

The copper banding is a nice touch and gives the pipe a balanced feel. The bowl is drilled cleanly, though the initial break-in took a few smokes before it really settled in. Overall, a solid workhorse for the price.
