Vintage Meerschaum Pipe with Original Case 
7 x 3 x 2 inches
The first recorded use of meerschaum for making pipes was around 1723. It quickly became prized as the perfect material for providing a cool, dry, flavorful smoke. Because of the porous nature of meerschaum moisture and tobacco tar are drawn deep into the stone. Meerschaum became a premium substitute for the clay pipes of the day and remains prized to this day, although since the mid-1800s Briar pipes  have become the most common pipes for smoking.
A meerschaum pipe is a smoking pipe made from the mineral sepiolite,  also known as meerschaum. Meerschaum, German for "sea foam" is sometimes found floating on the Black Sea and is rather suggestive of sea foam (hence the German origin of the name, as well as the French name for the same substance, cume de mer)

Condition: Vintage
