That's a Tinder Box Meerschaum house pipe? I didn't know they marketed those, though I don't know why they wouldn't. That's an intricate bowl and nicely colored.

Hi MSO. It has the name Salim etched into it. Back in the 90's, maybe even earlier, TB B&M had a good selection of Meerschaums. For years I regretted not buying the lattice design for the same money, but in looking at the color over the years I am happy with it. I do not wear gloves on my schaums. All of my pipes get handled like scarred leather. My other two show more scarring.

I have an meerschaum apple latticed Apple shape with really thick walls, it is only just starting to colour after several years of smoking...I'll be pleased when it reaches the colour of your pipe, which is really lovely!

Thank you. I still wish I could remember whether this was 20 or 30 YO, not that it makes a diff. I've started and stopped so many times, but at 60 I don't think I have a reason to avoid baccy anymore.

Here is a new Salim that is the only one of similar design I can find. Price is 330$. After a lifetime of bad decisions, save, marrying Xuan, This one shines. I paid less than 100$ for it.
