AKB Meerschaum: Lattice Freehand (with Case) Tobacco Pipe

A stylish, eye-catching Freehand, this piece from AKB is almost Cavalier-like in its constructions, with a plump, horizontally orientated bowl wedded to a vertically inclined shank that extends through the transition and forms a foot at the base of the composition. The shank tops off the design and makes a gentle downturn near its bit for a comfortable smoking posture. A lattice-carved finish dresses the stummel and covers the pale, porous meerschaum with dimpled circles, providing a pleasing texture for the fingers to explore. With time and use, the stummel will patinate, taking on tans, browns, and golds for even more unique character.
