US Navy Emblem Poker Pre-colored Meerschaum Pipe

US Navy Emblem Poker Pre-colored Meerschaum Pipe - Maritime heritage and the artistry of fine pipe carving are found in this exceptional pre-colored poker meerschaum pipe, masterfully carved and signed by renowned Turkish carver A. Govem. At the heart of its design is a meticulously rendered United States Navy (USN) anchor emblem, prominently carved in relief and encircled by a backdrop of delicate rusticated detailing. This bold centerpiece is framed in a smooth circular border, giving it a distinct presence and symbolic resonance.

The remainder of the poker-style bowl showcases a beautifully executed basketweave pattern—classic and textured. Designed with practical sophistication, the pipe's bowl rests at a slight forward angle, ensuring stability when set down between smokes—an ideal feature for the tobacco pipe smoker who prefers to rest the pipe in between puffs. Lightly etched along the side of the shank is the signature of A. Govem, a mark of authenticity and artistry. The pre-coloring is a beautiful shade of golden brown. Adding a final flourish, the pipe is completed with a striking marbled amber bent designer stem.

This remarkable pipe is a distinguished piece for collectors, veterans, or anyone who appreciates the union of naval history and fine craftsmanship.

This special meerschaum pipe is expertly hand-carved from 100% genuine solid block meerschaum, imported directly from the heart of central Turkey—the world’s most renowned source of high-grade meerschaum. Each pipe is individually carved by skilled artisans, then dipped in natural beeswax to form a protective coating. This beeswax finish not only enhances the pipe’s visual warmth and texture but also assists in drawing out tar and smoke particles, contributing to a smoother smoking experience. As it is used, the pipe will gradually develop a rich patina, deepening in color and character. The stem is crafted from durable Amberoid acrylic, chosen for its striking appearance and long-lasting strength, ensuring a refined finish that complements the elegance of the carved bowl.

Each of our solid block meerschaum pipes is individually hand-carved, making it a truly unique, one-of-a-kind work of art. This US Navy meerschaum pipe is not only a functional piece but also a collector’s treasure, reflecting the artistry and tradition of skilled craftsmanship. The pipe is presented in a black leather handmade case with a durable brass hinge and soft velvet lining on the interior. The case is custom-made, ensuring your meerschaum pipe is a tailored fit for safe storage and protection.
