Product Number: 004-653-7032
AKB, short for Ali Karim Bey, is among the most respected firms producing meerschaum pipes today. First used in the 18th and 19th centuries, meerschaum is recognized for its smoking qualities, patination, and ability to be intricately carved. Based in Turkey, AKB commissions one of a kind pipes that are hand carved by the world’s most established and respected artisans, such as Tekin, Mcinar, Yusuf, and I. Baglan. Using only high-quality, solid-block meerschaum and often colorful acrylic stems, AKB’s carvers create extremely intricate pipes, from classically inclined lattice patterns to complicated figurals.
