The "173" is one of Savinelli's more unusual numbers, featuring full Italian shaping combined with a hint of Danish smoothness, rendering a plump Apple bowl with a Billiard-like height and depth. 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.
