For those who prefer Dublins with fuller bowl proportions, yet a lighter and more delicate shank and stem than is the norm amongst Italian designs, the Savinelli 412 KS is a fine choice. Many pipe companies seem to stick with one style and simply stain it different colors and adorn it with various ferrules and whatnot to achieve different results, but Savinelli really thinks a little more deeply about pairing rustication with the other aspects of the pipe. This really shows in the Roma, with a fairly low-profile rustication matched to a minimal accent of brass trim, lending this series a simple beauty.
