The primary feature of a Pot is its broad tobacco chamber, and the Savinelli "316 KS" certainly fulfills that purpose. Particularly wide at the top, the chamber is conical, aligning with the shaping of the bowl, while the lithe shank-and-stem combination adds tasteful elegance through its curve. It's a remarkably organic interpretation, offering a sweeping heel and softly rounded rim, and all with a subtle forward momentum to keep things lively.
Introduced in 2023, Savinelli's Paloma series is named after the Italian word for "dove" and is characterized by two finishes offered across six shapes. The smooth offerings are dressed in a rich chestnut stain, highlighting fine grain while contrasting elegantly with the Paloma's multicolored stem of custom-cast, high-quality acrylic, while the rusticated options are stained a deep black hue, with a wealth of crisp texture around the stummel. The cream, caramel, and mahogany tones of the stem offer an elegant complement to the stummel — here dressed in the Paloma's smooth finish.
