Out of stock
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. It is essentially, a poker shape, not entirely unlike the catalog staple for various 20th century pipe companies, but the rendition is decidedly more modern. One might consider it a “forward-facing sitter” (in more senses than one), with a nod to the “Hobo Poker” designs of Mike Sebastian Bay, as well as the slightly “tipsy,” or “drunken,” pokers and cherrywoods of America’s artisan scene. To this basic shape, Turkish floral carvings have been added to give it an extra layer of distinction, as well as a reverse calabash system, 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.
