Each Star Meerschaum pipe is carved out of premium grade block meerschaum.With demand of premium quality meerschaum pipes on the rise, we decided to create the ultimate meerschaum pipe series : STAR Meerschaum Pipes
STAR MEERSCHAUM uses only the best grade meerschaum blocks and they go through a 3 phase elimination process to ensure that only the best quality meerschaum is utilized.
1) The meerschaum blocks are sourced from the finest meerschaum mine in Turkey : Sarisu (TURKMENTOKAT ) mines in Eskisehir which are known to have highest quality and best grade of meerschaum in Turkey.
2) The miners select only the best meerschaum blocks among the hundreds mined from under 100 meters below the surface.
3) Then our master carvers even more carefully select the final blocks to be used in our STAR series so that only the very best quality meerschaum is used to carve a STAR Meerschaum Pipe.STAR meerschaum pipes have a unique engineering system the same as can be found in briar pipes.- Briar type tenons are used in all of our meerschaum pipes.
WGM Meerschaum pipes are made from the finest solid block meerschaum mined in Turkey. As with many natural materials, variations exists based on location and conditions. The blocks mined from around Sarisu and Margi are some of the purest and hardest meerschaum used in pipe making. Thanks to its pure and solid nature, these grades of Meerschaum are best suited for intricate carvings and sharp conventional shapes.
All of the WGM pipes are fitted with sturdy, briar style Delrin tenon, much stronger and more durable compared to the common screw threaded fitting. A three dip process is carried out with Bees Wax to seal the absorbent meerschaum surface and give the pipe a snow white finish. Fitted with Italian Acrylic black stem and presented in a handmade, leather bound case
As each of these pipes are unique, the one shown in the image is the one you get.
