    Show Off Your Meerschaum Pipes Here!

    Sorry I realize this is months later but who did your stem for you?

    New Tekin Meer!

    Only 15 bowls in and it’s coloring quite well. I’ve only been handling it by the stem so all coloring is true coloring, not finger smudges.

    Is It Better to Leave Unopened Tins in Their Tins or Jar Them?

    I'm not sure. Most likely not since its not financially beneficial to send just one tin or do a refund of $12-15.

    Is It Better to Leave Unopened Tins in Their Tins or Jar Them?

    Thanks all for your advice. I popped a sealed tin of some 2022 Regent Flake last night only to find out it has become a mold garden…. Looked like someone stuck a cotton ball in there…. What could have caused this?

    Is It Better to Leave Unopened Tins in Their Tins or Jar Them?

    Have a few tins of Haunted Bookshop that are unopened and am tidying up my cellar. I’m not sure if it’s better to crack them and put them in mason jars or leave them unopened. My thought would be the latter.

    A Look at STG Internal Documents Regarding the Mac Baren / Sutliff Buyout

    Honestly American Spirits Black is a pretty tasty perique smoke. Sometimes I’ll buy a pack of AS Black and just puff on them like a cigar

    Wring out the Full Virginia Flake

    I am probably missing out but I refuse to even smoke it. My first experience with it was similar to yours. I think I had a one minute smoke before it went out and wouldn't keep lit anymore and that was after 48hrs of dry time. The minute I had with it was absolutely delicious but I don't...

    I Am Once Again Asking For Custom Meer Stem Work

    Can’t seem to find anyone who does custom stem work for push tenon pipes, specifically my Tekin. The bit of the stem cracked and while it still works, it’s uncomfortable to use. Any recommendations?

    ***What Are You Smoking, December 2024?***

    Smoking some Pesse Canoe I picked up here in Europe. Fantastic smoke. Smoking in the new Tekin

    Can anyone help me identify this meer?

    Found at a flea market. It was colored beautifully and well smoked it seems. The only markings on it seems to signify it’s an Algerian meerschaum. There is a stamp of DO on the silver band as well.

    Merci Beaucoup! I’m definitely enjoying it. Going to the German border tomorrow. I’m going to buy a bunch of these and cellar them. Very good stuff

    New Tekin Meer!

    Sorry miss type .68, it’s quite small. The listing has it marked as .7 but it’s a bit smaller than that

    New Tekin Meer!

    about 10 bowls in and this thing is very hard to smoke because of the chamber width though I think I am getting the hang of it. It’s about a .58” bowl

    New Tekin Meer!

    Same here! I have all of the big names (Altinay, IMP, SMS) and now have to delve into the actual carvers!

    New Tekin Meer!

    Early Christmas present to myself. First Tekin pipe. It looks to me like this pipe is going to color wonderfully, much like @LeafErikson. The bowl is quite small, much smaller than I thought but it’s made up with how comfortable the pipe is in the mouth. Will be a great, short smoke for...

    Im not convinced you didn't color the shank with an orange sharpie 🤣
