Smiling Viking Knurl Meerschaum Pipe - Portrait carving of a Viking wearing a horned helmet with a spread-winged eagle carved on the front. From under the helmet flow long locks of hair. A bushy moustache and wavy beard frame his smiling, big-toothed mouth. The smooth shank connects to a smooth, carved knurl that adds a complementary look. The bent, marbled amber stem adds more length. Overall, a very nice-looking Viking meerschaum tobacco pipe.
A knurl is a piece of solid block meerschaum designed in either a carved or smooth finish. It fits on the shank of the meerschaum pipe and serves as an attractive extension. A knurl makes the shank longer thus increasing the overall length of the pipe. With this extension the smoke has further to travel with more time to cool down before reaching the end of the mouthpiece. Knurls on our meerschaum pipes have a Teflon threaded connector making it easy to remove when cleaning the pipe.
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 Viking meerschaum pipe.
