MEERSCHAUM PIPES - PEOPLE, ANIMALS, AND OTHER FIGURES
|
Meerschaum, translated from German means
"sea foam." This name reflects the lightness in weight and whiteness
in color. Meerschaum, a mineral (Hydrous Magnesium Silicate), is considered
by pipe smokers as the perfect material for a cool, dry smoke. The
pipe itself is a natural filter that absorbs tar.
Today, the highest quality meerschaum deposits are not found near
any body of water. They are found in only one area of the world,
the open plains of central Turkey surrounding the small city of
Eskisehir. Meerschaum is mined wet from depths of up to 400 feet
and is bought by carvers in various size blocks or lumps called
stones, then hand carved into what many consider one of the finest
smoking pipes available.
Our meerschaum pipes are individually hand-carved from block meerschaum,
not pressed, and they are priced based on the size of the pipe,
quality of the meerschaum block, and the carving detail. Due to
the delicate nature of these pipes, each is shipped in a custom-made
hard protective case with a velvet lined interior.
