Special Bacchus God of Wine Meerschaum Pipe - What a grand statement this Bacchus meerschaum pipe makes! It is a huge pipe carved from a fine piece of top-quality meerschaum. The attention to detail in this carving is outstanding. The Roman God of Wine has a beaming face with an open-mouthed smile showing all his teeth. The eyebrows above his almond-shaped eyes, round cheekbones, and a full, wavy beard and moustache are detailed. He wears a splendid wreath of grapevines. The carving of the vine branch is open, and the grapes are hanging down the sides. The pipe bowl is exceptionally deep. The shank is smooth and attaches to a gorgeous, full-bent, scrolled designer stem. The craftsmanship evident in this piece speaks to the artist's dedication and skill, making it not just a functional item but also a work of art.
This meerschaum pipe is hand-carved from genuine 100% solid block meerschaum, and it is imported directly from central Turkey. After carving the pipe, it is dipped in beeswax to provide a protective coating, which also helps to draw out smoke particles and tar. The pipe will change color over time as it is smoked. The stem is made from a special Amberoid acrylic, which provides a great finished look and long-lasting durability.
Since it is hand-carved, each solid block meerschaum pipe we sell is a one-of-a-kind work of art. This hand-carved meerschaum pipe comes in a handmade brass-hinged case covered in burgundy leather and lined in velvet on the inside. The pipe case is custom-made for this specific Bacchus meerschaum pipe.
