MBSD Meerschaum Deluxe Silver Lattice Peewit 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.

The Peewit is a legendary shape within post-war briar pipes, and more specifically in the artisan briars that first emerged in Denmark. Inspired by the figure of the Lapwing, the shape was created by Sixten Ivarsson, and has been a staple of handmade pipes ever since—or, handmade briar pipes, I should say. As with a few other of our MBSD Meerschaum pipes, this Deluxe Silver model is a meerschaum-bodied Peewit, providing the advantages of both the elegant, lightweight, and very beautiful Ivarssonian form, and the excellent smoking properties of the Turkish mineral. This one has also been dressed in Turkish lattice carvings, to further cement this marriage of pipe making worlds.
