Bacchus Meerschaum Pipe
Prepare to be wowed by this stunning, one of a kind, meerschaum pipe, hand carved in Turkey.
Featuring Bacchus, the ancient Greco-Roman god of wine and festivity complete with his impressive beard and crown of grapes this pipe really is a work of art. His gigantic smile and kind eyes make it clear to see he’s a good time guy!
Found only in Turkey and some parts of Northern Africa, Meerschaum is a highly sought after material in pipe making, known for its porous qualities. It is also extremely easy to work with when wet, making it a popular choice with master craftspeople to display their skills.
The marbled, lucite stem is hand turned for a unique finish.
Presented in a soft-lined, bespoke hard case with metal clasp fastener.
Approximate dimensions:
Length – 180mm
Bowl depth – 50mm
Bowl diameter – 22mm
PLEASE NOTE: Dimensions are approximate and intended as a guide only. Meerschaum can be fragile, especially when new. Always make sure you let your pipe cool down fully before taking it apart to clean and never bang the bowl on a hard surface when emptying – it will break!
