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

This bent Billiard from Ali of AKB Meerschaum benefits from its paneled arrangement, the firm ridges surrounding the bowl providing some extra musculature to the composition and a nice feel in hand. The silhouette of this pipe is quite sinuous, the lines plunging through the shank and stem before sweeping back up at the heel and curving rearward toward the bowl, highlighting the lovely shaping of the piece as a whole. The stummel has been carved in an intricate lattice pattern of circular divots and inverted teardrops, the space around these carving stained a warm tan, while the design itself is the natural pale white of the mineral, offering plenty of contrast. A pipe tamper of a matching design and stain comes with this pipe, completing your smoking experience with style and adding extra value.
