Brahmin Meerschaum Pipe – Medium
This meerschaum pipe is a real work of art, a hand-carved Indian Brahmin complete with jewel encrusted turban and intricate details including bushy beard and stern frown.
The pipe features an extra deep bowl and is fitted with a hand-turned lucite stem in a marbled amber colour with a fishtail mouthpiece.
Found only in Turkey and some parts of Northern Africa, meerschaum is a highly sought after material in pipe production, famed for its porous qualities which result in a flavoursome, cool, dry smoke – we find ‘wet smokers’ get on particularly well with meerschaum pipes.
Meerschaum is also extremely easy to work with when wet, making it a top choice for artists to show off their carving skills and create unique works of art like this one.
Presented in its own bespoke, velvet-lined hard case with metal clasp closure to keep it safe and secure when not in use.
Made in Turkey.
Approximate dimensions:
Length – 155mm
Bowl depth – 50mm
Bowl diameter – 19mm
PLEASE NOTE: Meerschaum can be fragile especially when warm! Never take a pipe apart for cleaning until it has properly cooled down and never bang the bowl on a hard surface.
