The Savinelli story begins in 1976 when Achille Savinelli Sr. opens in the center of Milan one of the first stores in the world that exclusively sells items for smokers.
This small shop, which among other things still exists today, gradually became a meeting place for passionate smokers where they could exchange ideas, experiences and advice.
It was in that shop that Savinelli Sr began to design his pipes, produced manually by Varesini artisans, thus giving life to what is today probably one of the most known and acclaimed brands of smoking items in the world.
