MBSD Meerschaum Silver Reverse Calabash Acorn Block Meerschaum Pipe, New

Description

The MBSD Meerschaum Silver is our new series of silver mounted meerschaum pipes. Using the same high-grade, fast-coloring Turkish meerschaum found on our Deluxe series, these pipes exclusively feature silver army mounts or spigot mounts.

For this Silver line meerschaum, inspiration was taken from a singular shape in modern pipe making, one that has been continually reinvented since the early post-war period: the acorn. While common in traditional Anglo-French shape charts, the acorn is a shape that was completely transformed with the advent of artisan pipe making, and its Danish and post-Danish renditions have been at the forefront of design innovations. The broad, plump, and highly organic acorns of figures such as Nanna Ivarsson, Jess Chonowitsch, and Lasse Skovgaard seemed to be perfect influences for reverse calabash models, leading to the creation of this one.
