plateauguy, yes yours is exactly like the photo. I did smoke mines last night with Cube. It was a wonderful smoke with one relight.

I feel like a kid at Christmas. I keep seeing the mail carrier drive up with a package but it's always something for work instead.

Mine arrived today. Sent by registered mail. Very well packed. Perfect condition. They fit the falcon stem well.

Thanks.

I have a Falcon question relating to the meerschaum bowls. I don't own a Falcon and am going to have to get one once my meer bowl arrives. I'm probably going to pick one up on eBay. Is there a difference regarding the threading over the years with Falcon or does a bowl (these bowls) fit any era base?

I bought my Falcon on Ebay. It was unsmoked and came with three bowls. No problem threading the two new meerschaum bowls onto the stem. I don't know how new or old the Falcon set was. Hope this helps.

Mike,

I don't believe they fit the earliest Falcon pipes but Meerqueen would know and I'm sure he'll state an answer when he see's the postings have been active as he has monitored it to see if folks are receiving their bowls and how they find them to be smoking wise.

My only Falcon is a #1 so it's one of the earlier ones (probably 1930s?). I'll let you know how it fits when they arrive.

Just got my package in today. They fit my Falcon #1 just fine. Now, I just need some warmer weather to smoke them. Sherlock definitely isn't as nicely done as the sample photo but I realized that's always a possibility with Meerschaum at this price range.

@ Mike bowls fit any falcon pipe as i know.
@Dave Thank you :)
@ jgriff yes you are right.Sherlock could be better than that .But it is about workmanship and price.
I am glad almost everyone got their falcon bowls :)

The Meerschaum Store now has the Falcon meerschaums on their website. They are beautifully done, and the price is reasonable. I'd strongly recommend them to anyone that's interested.

hi, sorry to bring back this thread but I see that most bowls are sold out. Any plans to restock?

Pipinho if you want you can choose one or more of the bowls pictured and they will then make them for you. It's not for the immediate gratification crowd though. Mine took six weeks but they did eventually arrive.
