Savun Signed Pirate Knurl Meerschaum Pipe - Portrait carving of a laughing pirate wearing a patch over his eye. He sports a big pirate hat with a skull on the crest. This pipe is carved and signed on the side of the shank by Turkish carver Savun. The knurl is carved with both a floral pattern found at the end of the shank, and a smooth band at the other end where it joins the marbled bent stem.
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 imported directly from central Turkey. After the pipe is carved it is dipped in beeswax to provide a protective coating and to also draw out smoke particles and tar. The pipe will color over time as it is smoked. The stem is made of a special Amberoid Acrylic for a nice finished look and long lasting durability.
Every block meerschaum pipe we sell is carved by hand, so no two pipes are exactly the same. This hand-carved pipe comes in a custom made burgundy leather and velvet-lined brass hinged case which is a special fit and unique to this particular Savun pirate knurl meerschaum pipe.
