AKB Meerschaum: Lattice Bent Billiard (Ali) (with Tamper and Case) Tobacco Pipe

A handsome, Cherrywood-like bent Billiard, this pipe from Ali of AKB Meerschaum showcases a languid curvature about its shank and stem that stands out in sharp contrast against the solidly upright, cylindrical bowl. Quite a muscular rendition of the classic profile as well, this pipe displays a gentle taper through the shank and stem as well, making for a piece that's still appreciably sleek despite its thick build. Comfortable in the hand, the bowl's walls are well-rounded and provide ample room to display the lovely lattice carving adorning the stummel, the carved portions remaining pale white while the rest of the meerschaum is stained a handsome tan hue to match the amber stem. For added value, this comes as a set with a matching tamper, both it and the pipe fitting into a handy case.
