Finally Got a Nice Meerschaum

[friday]

I loved the nautical theme!

White as snow. Time to fire her up. Nice intricate carving . who is the maker?

 

[friday]

It’s about 10 bowls in. It was carved by Servi.

Very nice! Nautical, not the usual run of the mill carvings seen so often. And, it's bent. Very good taste! Enjoy!

Lovely meer :clap:

Thank you! I’ve wanted a Meer for a while, nothing really spoke to me though, but as soon as I saw this one, I had to have it! I know Meers take forever to color, but seeing as how this one has such thick walls, I assume it’s gonna take even longer. No worries though. It smokes great!

 

[weezell]

Smoke the hell out it, it will color...

 

[warren]

Treat yourself to a couple of quiet bowls each evening and it'll soon show color in the stem and the bottom of the bowl. Then you can enjoy watching the process.
If I'd seen that pipe in a shop I'd be smoking it now. Trust me.

Very fine. May I ask what she weighs? I am looking for a pipe for a Christmas present and the smoker likes his pipes under 35 grams. I am sure that's considerably more, but worth it!

I’m not sure what it weighs... it wasn’t an available stat and I don’t have a scale. I will say though it’s a big pipe, not really a clencher.
Here’s a size comparison

That is a beautiful stem, nice pick up

Beautiful pipe! I've been wanting a meer for a while now. One day, I'll run across the perfect one for me.

Good luck in the search! I hear the first one is the banana peel for more!

Nice pipe! Servi carves some great looking pipes. Enjoy!

Nice pipe, and wow... the bowl walls are thick. Should be a good one.

 

[seagullplayer]

I hope you update a pic now and again to see how it colors up. That thick looks like a long term goal.
Cool pipe

And post the weight, say after visiting a store with a proper scale....

. Here is my Naval Servi , same bent shape, you really bought a nice Meer, I like my Servi and the price is very reasonable, quality piece. Smoke it and it will color.
