About this piece

This meerschaum pipe was cut from a single block of genuine Turkish meerschaum and finished by hand in Eskişehir, Türkiye.

The form is shaped around the owl motif, worked in relief from the solid block.

The 4 photographs on this page show the actual piece from every side, unretouched. Open any image full screen to inspect the carving closely.

Every piece in this catalogue is cut from genuine block meerschaum, a hydrous magnesium silicate mined near Eskişehir. It is soft enough to take fine detail when freshly worked and hardens as it dries, which is what allows undercut carving to survive at all. Pressed meerschaum, made from bonded offcuts, cannot hold it. How block and pressed differ.

Availability and delivery

This is a one-of-a-kind piece. Availability is confirmed personally before any payment is discussed; messaging the atelier does not reserve or purchase it. Shipping is quoted per destination once the country is known, because import rules for this category vary and the atelier confirms it can fulfil an order before accepting one. What that involves for an international buyer.
