The first recorded use of meerschaum for making pipes was around 1723 and quickly became prized as the perfect material for providing a cool, dry, flavorful smoke. The porous nature of meerschaum draws moisture and tobacco tar into the stone. Meerschaum became a premium substitute for the clay pipes of the day and remains prized to this day.

This pipe is made from Turkish Meerschaum and natural minerals, It is the perfect size for a quick smoke or trying a different flavor of tobacco to see if you like it. The bowl is guaranteed to never burn out as what happens with some wood or Briar pipes. Hand finished and inspected for consistency in design and quality. Stem color may vary from picture.
