In Need of Someone Who Does Professional Meerschaum Restorations

azpipe · Dec 20, 2017

My step father just gifted me his father's old meer. I doubt its worth much monetarily, but I'd love to have it restored back to its former glory for sentimental reasons. I found an old thread that recommended Ronni Bikacsan of NightOwl Pipeworks but it looks like he is no longer accepting work.
Any recommendations?

My treasured meer is "vacationing" with Rick in sunny FLA. right now, he came very highly recommended by two "brothers" in the hobby whom I trust explicitly, one who is an antique meerschaum collector, so yes, yes and yes from me too!

Yep Rik at Briarville is the way to go. He does all my work and keeps my pipes humming along!

I just got my first Briarville pipe repair back and I'm impressed.

That coloration is fabulous. No pro will miss that fact, but be sure to ask him to preserve that. Sometimes it's luck of the draw, and meers can look discolored or dirty, but this one has bloomed to perfection. Lovely pipe.
