Pirate Red Ring Churchwarden Meerschaum Pipe - A smiling, toothless pirate gazes outward with his one good eye, surveying his loot while the other is covered with a cross-hatched eye patch. His hair, mustache, and beard are all well-groomed. He wears a tall pirate hat with a skull and dangling tassel. The pipe is unusual in that the face points downward with a shank that sweeps upward in an Oom Paul style. The smooth shank has a touch of decorative lattice carving. At the end is a fashionable red band that joins the shank to the beautifully scrolled churchwarden bent stem. This unique design adds an air of sophistication to his normally rugged appearance.
In addition to its pleasing look, the long stem of a churchwarden pipe serves to keep smoke and heat further away from the pipe smoker's face. Along with the natural filtering quality of meerschaum, which is known to deliver a cool, dry smoking experience, a churchwarden stem allows smoke to cool even more as it travels the extra distance from the bowl to the end of the mouthpiece.
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 you smoke it. The stem is made out of a special Amberoid acrylic, which provides a great finished look and long-lasting durability.
Since every solid block meerschaum pipe we sell is carved by hand, each pipe is a unique, one-of-a-kind piece of artistry. This hand-carved pipe comes in a specially made burgundy leather and velvet-lined brass hinged case. It is a custom fit and unique to this pirate churchwarden meerschaum pipe.
