MBSD Meerschaum Silver Floral Bullcap Reverse Calabash Block Meerschaum Pipe, New

Description

The MBSD Meerschaum Silver is our line of silver-mounted meerschaum pipes. Using the same high-grade, fast-coloring Turkish meerschaum found on our Deluxe series, these pipes exclusively feature silver army mounts or spigot mounts.

Long-time visitors to MBSD Pipes will know how much I enjoy blending various shapes and styles for our meerschaum pipe designs. Our latest batch of MBSD Meerschaums have included some prime examples, this being one of them. In part inspired by the classic, bullcap Rhodesian shapes of LHS, Custom-Bilt, and other 20th century American briar mainstays—a shape we’ve returned to frequently in our MBSD Meerschaum Deluxe line—this rendition has also been furnished with intricate and quintessentially Turkish floral and brickwork carvings, resulting in a design that marries worlds as well as mediums. Being a rather stout design, it was also well suited to add a reverse calabash system to, i.e., a hollowed chamber nestled within the shank, giving the smoke more room to cool and dry as it passes from the pipe’s chamber to its silver-mounted mouthpiece.
