MBSD Masters by Kenan, Magnum Gothic Skull Block Meerschaum Pipe, New
Out of stock
Description
MBSD Meerschaum Masters is our line for special, typically figural, meerschaum pipes carved by some of today’s greatest living meerschaum carvers. For this pipe, we enlisted the services of Turkish master Kenan.
Alas, poor Yorick! As with any art form, meerschaum carving is no stranger to gothic themes and motifs. And while on the one hand (no pun intended), skilled meerschaum carvers may use the figure of the clutched egg for their pipes, they may also sculpt a similar figure in the clutched skull, as seen here. Both make for quite stunning pipes, and I’m not sure which I like more. Then again, it does seem quite fitting for the instrument of one’s preferred vice to double as a memento mori.
