Stem Repair

As I do when steaming out a dent from a wooden table top, - floor etc. Perhaps the drop of water is only superstition, but it always worked fine for me :) These look more like scratches to me, but...- orlandofurioso

Meerschaum - Don't Touch?
Not a clue, I was not there . But possibly will be in a few decades from now :) Meers are being waxed since the beginning of times and collectors have always been an odd bunch.
