New Meerschaum from Ottoman Art Shop

[Knucklehead]

I bought a new Meerschaum from Ottoman Art Shop on ebay from Viktoriya in Istanbul. A super nice man that reminds me alot of Istanbulin but smarter. (Just teasing Emre, got you) Here is a link to his ebay store:

It's a medium sized meer that is a perfect size for clenching and is lightweight. Very good smoker right out of the box. Viktoriya may come in and chat with us awhile.

Nice pipe Wallace. But how did that young lady remind you a lot of me ? LOL

Did you notice the photo on the profile ? If I'm right, this will show that I'm smarter than you LOL

 

[Knucklehead]

Lol. Ok I bow down to your superior intelligence. Viktoriya is a ladies' name? I thougt it was a long way of saying Victor. Now I see the Victoria in it. Doh!! No. I didn't have sense enough to look at the profile. That's where the Knucklehead part comes in not just the motorcycle engine.

These're only jokes of course

...Viktoriya is a ladies' name?...Now I see the Victoria in it...

I think, it looks like a Slavic version of Victoria (?).

Pipe carver is Rafi Isik from Eskisehir-Turkey. I got a simple one to keep price down and because I am so simple. (minded)

Nice pipe, Alabama. I just bid on a couple meerschaums on eBay tonight. We should make sure we're not bidding against each other.

Afraid of a little friendly competition? LOL No, not bidding on anything right now. Some things I bid on and some things I just look for the best deal on Buy Now. It just depends. Good luck on the bids.

Thats a nice looking meer man. Score

Thanks Seanz. JBD talked me into giving Meers a try after I nearly spit groceries breaking in a new briar. What an awful taste, and stayed with me all day. The Meers smoke good from the first bowl. My first Meers was too heavy though, it held about a lb of tobacco and I couldn't clench it in my teeth while I did other things. This one is a good size and lightweight.

 

[Seanz]

yeah Breaking in a new pipe can be, shall we say trying. I like my meers though due to bowl size i tend to smoke them when i have an hour or two free.

 

[Knucklehead]

I should have posted something for reference. Good size for quick smokes and while you are doing something else.
