Achille Savinelli Sr. opened in Milano (1876) a store dedicated to smokers. In 1890 his son Carlo Savinelli succeeded him for about 50 years. The grandson of the founder, Achille Savinelli Jr. (1918-1987) in association with Enea Buzzi started pipe production in Brebbia. They split in 1953, Savinelli setting up its own factory in Molina di Barasso.
Giancarlo Savinelli (4th Savinelli's generation) is currently (2011) managing the company.

The "Doppio" pipe is fitted with a double 9mm filter system: one on the stem tenon and the second on the extension tenon. "Savinelli Patent" is engraved around the tenon (see enlarged view #3).

The Dry System line may be stamped with a 3 or a 4 digits shape code. This is an exception to Savinelli's routine 3 digits shape code. (see shape chart document). In other words, a 4 digits "Dry System" pipe is not necessarily an early Savinelli pipe.
