New (to me) Altinay Meer

[ChonkyTonks]

I just snagged what I feel is a hell of a deal on a nice meer. The auction was for an Altinay ball meer with a new/replacement stem (Tim West) for just under $50. This thing is a monster. The bowl depth can easily support two flakes worth of tobacco. Draw is great and it was well taken care of by the previous owner. I have been trending more and more toward my meers as of late and this is a great new addition. Maiden voyage was some G&H Sam's Flake.

Wow! What a beautiful pipe! I have 4 Altinay meers and they are all great pipes. I predict that pipe will quickly become a favorite of yours

I love the ones that hang effortlessly. That one should hardly be noticeable!

It does. Fun pipe to smoke.

I also bought a similar meer (not an Altinay) from Tim West at a similar price and I knew it would be great because Tim prepared it, and it IS great! Thanks Tim West!

Already three different blends through it. I am normally not one who covets pipes (more of a conveyance, really), but this may start an unhealthy relationship with meerschaum.
