[QUOTE="Retrogasm, post: 390509, member: 3609"] I don't own any meers but I do find myself checking them out more and more these days. When it comes to pipes, I'm pretty 'boring', I don't do freehands and I'm not much for the more aberrant shapes out there (basically the whole non factory danish school). To me, beauty comes from the perfectly executed and balanced billiard accented by an incredible blast or enhanced by some killer silver work. That all goes out the window with meers. Something about the material lends itself to an 'old world' feel that in my opinion allows for pretty much anything. I love the stem on your pipe, in fact I'd say that type of amber is almost a requirement on a meer. The more fanciful the carving, the better. I've also had it in mind for a while to find a carver to do a custom meer tamper for me. I was looking around trying to find an image of approximatly what I've been looking at when I came across this. Turns out simple and boring works for meerschaum as well: [center][IMG]https://2img.net/h/www.meerschaumstore.com/images/classic/cl101.jpg[/IMG][/center] [/QUOTE]
