I had a client bring in a collection of Native American material and with that came an item I knew very little about, but still fascinated me. It’s a civil war era meerschaum pipe from the 1860s and it’s going to be in an upcoming auction. I was excited to learn more about this pipe and the many different materials involved in its construction. If something piques your interest, do some research and figure it out! #meerschaum #tobaccopipe #meerschaumpipe #antiquepipe #gold #colossuspipefactory #
