TURKEY

I will be offering a variety of

Hand-carved MEERSCHAUM Egg and Thimble

These have been hand-carved by very skilled craftsmen. None are EXACTLY alike!

MEERSCHAUM: a soft, white, claylike, heat-resistant mineral, used mostly for tobacco pipes.

The best pure block meerschaum is found in Turkey, in the area surrounding the village of Eskisehir. Some mines are open cast and others may be as deep as 125 metres.

Sherlock Holmes' fans probably know that he always carried a beautiful 'Meerschaum pipe'.

You will receive the Egg, Egg Stand and the Thimble.
