SMS Wind Cap Vase Sitter Estate Block Meerschaum Pipe, Turkish Estates

Though I’m of course partial to our MBSD-brand meerschaums, that doesn’t mean I don’t recognize genuine artistry in the craft when I see it, regardless of the maker. This meer, from the highly respected SMS make, is an example of exactly that. It’s a beautiful vase-like creation – very old-world, in fact – with a removable wind cap that heightens the sculptural feel of the design while adding extra functionality on breezy days. The condition is very good. Some minor rim darkening and very light scratches on the bowl exterior.   Details: Length: 6″ / 152.4mm Bowl Width: 0.85 / 21.59mm Bowl Depth: 1.98″ / 50.29mm Weight: 2.6oz / 76g
