MBSD Meerschaum Deluxe Silver Brandy Block Meerschaum Pipe, Briar-Mortise, New

Description

After the success of our MBSD Deluxe meerschaum pipes, which feature a patented Briar-Mortise system for extra durability, we’ve been developing additional series to offer an even greater range of meers for our customers. One of these series is the Deluxe Silver, which features a mortise strengthened both by briar on the interior, and sterling silver on the exterior. These pipes might be thought of as army mount or spigot mount pipes (depending on the design), with even more of a guarantee to their longevity. Better still, these pipes are made from the same high-grade, fast-coloring meerschaum as our Deluxe and Silver series.

One of the things I most admire about the most prominent pipe factories of today, such as Peterson and Savinelli, is that they’re constantly developing new lines of pipes which stay faithful to traditional Anglo-French designs, but nonetheless often add a modern twist. Sometimes it’s a subtle deviation, sometimes it’s more pronounced. This MBSD Deluxe Silver line meerschaum is more akin to the former. It’s a classic bent brandy shape, with a sterling silver army mount (as well as a strengthened briar-lined mortise), but with a dash of color to add some extra distinction. In this instance, the color comes from a simple, but striking, two-tone Lucite stem, combining a deep blue with a ring of white at the stem’s base, both of which will complement the bowl marvelously as it colors.
