    Meerschaum Problem/Question

    Thanks Bob. You could display it as a real Curio... It is odd that the Carver didn't notice the odor since smelling the Block is one of the things done prior to purchase of Block. They also hold it up to the light and give close visual inspection. The idea that something has leached into...

    Being Lucky is a Good Thing

    Yes, that Paneled Calabash Estate Bekler looks good to me as well. Even without a case, it's a good deal. The Seller is reputable and the Pipe has been lightly smoked. It should clean up nicely and take a lot of Beeswax. It will be interesting to see what it sells for...

    Being Lucky is a Good Thing

    Thanks guys. Yes Unclearther, I've seen it as well. For me the test of a good Figural is whether or not you can tell what the expression on the face is or not. This is where technical achievement falls short and art begins. The cake buildup on the bowl's plateau can be dealt with Fredvegas...

    Being Lucky is a Good Thing

    The Seller didn't know much of anything about this Pipe and called it a J. Bekler, but answered my questions. I'm guessing, but the lucite used for the bit dates this Pipe sometime in the late '70's or early '80's. Much of Bekler's work was done in Figurals, most of which I don't care for...

    Being Lucky is a Good Thing

    This 1/4 Bent Smooth Egg Bekler Estate Meerschaum is a well smoked Pipe that should clean up nicely. It didn't attract a lot of attention, as mine was the only bid. I enjoy these old classic shapes cut out of high grade Block and this one is 6" in length and 2" bowl height. This is a shape...
