MBSD Meerschaum Deluxe Silver Bent Billiard Block Meerschaum Pipe, Briar-Mortise

Description

After the success of our MBSD Deluxe meerschaum pipes, which feature a patented Briar-Mortise system for extra durability, we’ve been developing additional series to offer an even greater range of meers for our customers. One of these series is the Deluxe Silver, which features a mortise strengthened both by briar on the interior, and sterling silver on the exterior. These pipes might be thought of as army mount or spigot mount pipes (depending on the design), with even more of a guarantee to their longevity. Better still, these pipes are made from the same high-grade, fast-coloring meerschaum as our Deluxe and Silver series.

As I was saying in a previous listing, I was talking to one of our customers about our meerschaum pipes, and he raised an interesting point. While I talk a lot about wanting our meers to include designs that are closer to briar staples, both modern and traditional, this wide variety sometimes neglects stem designs – more specifically, the various hues and palettes that a stem can be. In the past, I’ve leaned more toward black, amber, and cumberland-style colors because that’s what I associated with classic briar shapes. But, when I thought about it, I realized that stems can be all sorts of interesting designs, with similarly interesting results when paired with stummels, including meerschaum ones. This particular Deluxe is modeled after a traditional army mount bent billiard, but with a more modern, camouflage-themed stem.
