A meerschaum pipe is a smoking pipe crafted from the mineral sepiolite, also known as meerschaum. Material: Carved from premium-grade meerschaum blocks, known for their lightweight, durability, and excellent absorbency. Design: The stem connects firmly to the shank, ensuring perfect airflow and superior engineering. Length: 150 mm (5.90 inches). Height: 50 mm (1.96 inches). Weight: 31 g (1.09 oz). With use, meerschaum pipes gradually change color. Over time, they develop beautiful shades of yellow, orange, red, and amber, starting from the base and moving upward. Interior: Use a pipe cleaner gently inside the stem when separating and cleaning the shank. Exterior: Clean the outside with cotton or a soft cloth and a drop of aftershave lotion. Storage: Keep your pipes in their individual boxes for optimal preservation.
