What happens when the acme of meerschaum carving meets with perfection of coloring process? Well, it looks pretty much like the pipe that is on your monitor right now. I can't recall having seen a pipe carved by this late legend that didn't have a horn bit. If this "finishing touch" seems a bit extravagant on paper, it is exquisitely appropriate in person...Eyup Sabri wouldn't consider selling a particular piece, unless it represented the apogee of this singular, three dimensional art. At that point, sending it out with a lucite bit would be a bit akin to sending out Van Gogh's Sunflowers in a self-framing job from Michael's arts & crafts. There are meerschaums, and then there are MERRSCHAUMS, and then there is an Eyup Sabri. This pipe comes with original case and matching tamper. | What happens when the acme of meerschaum carving meets with perfection of coloring process?
