Special Lion in Backward Claw Meerschaum Pipe - A magnificent lion's head sits in a massive claw that is exquisitely carved. The claw's smooth talons and carved scales, as well as its snarled visage and sharp fangs framed by a thick mane, were all meticulously portrayed by the carver. The bowl of the pipe is incredibly deep. Considering its overall large size, the pipe is relatively light. The scrolled designer stem has deep amber hues and is fully bent. The craftsmanship of this piece is truly remarkable, drawing the eye to each intricate detail that showcases the artist's skill. It stands as not only a functional pipe but also a stunning work of art that commands attention and admiration.
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 black leather and lined on the inside in velvet. The pipe case is custom-made for this specific lion meerschaum pipe.
