Smoking some 1-Q again. I just finished a bowl of it in my Peterson System pipe, but the bowl was small and the smoke was finished way too quickly. I need to do it again. This time, the pipe is a Don Gustavo smooth, Fiery Black, full bent, with a saddle stem. I don't know if the picture does it justice, but it is a gorgeous pipe.

Most of you know from my posts in the WAYS threads that I’m a big fan of Savinelli and its rich history. Many of you know the company was founded in 1876, and that Achille Savinelli, Sr. and his siblings opened shops in both Milan and Genova (Genoa). This is a Savinelli Meerschaum Tirolean with cherry shank and horn stem with orific bit from the shop run by Angelo Savinelli located at Galleria Mazzini 31 in Genova, Italy, probably from the late 19th or early 20th Century. I decided it made sense to have Savinelli 140° (2022 Edition, No. 1358/2800) in it.
