Yes, I've ordered 3 from them. One broke within 4 months an I ordered a 4th. The basis of my question is that, aside from size, they're all identical. That suggests a molded product to me. I've had no success finding another source.
Another pipe with a meerschaum insert has a crack in the bottom of the chamber . Can that be glued?

If it hasn't crumbled, I would pack that crack with pipe mud, a paste made of water and ash, allow it to dry and smoke as normal
