Yes it is! I only buy meerschaum pipes with particularly interesting block quality, for my pipe smoking habits can be rather sporadic and I don’t want to have to wait until I’m 300 to have any color show up. Oh, and 47 grams, however, due to the way it hangs from the mouth to me it is as light as anything. I hope it’ll color up as well as your Tekin in time, which may be one of the most beautifully colored pipes ever shown on this forum IMO.Dang! That is a hell if a lot of color for only 22 bowls. Amy idea how much this pipe weighs? Lovely piece.

If I were there ... and will visit again sometime ... I'd stop at one of the Food Trucks along Constitution Ave & buy those soldiers a famous DC Half Smoke.Velvet in an unstained, unvarnished and unpainted Bertram made out of aged oil cured Algerian briar by crippled soldiers, under the shadow of the Capitol dome in the District of Columbia!
