This is a lovely and rare meerschaum table pipe carved for the 1873 World Applied Arts Exhibition in Vienna Austria. She stands proudly at 12 inches in height, mounted loosely onto a burl briar base and covered by a hand blown glass dome. She was once a part of the famous Ramazzotti collection in Milan, Italy. Now a pinnacle part of the Morris Family Collection.
wow gorgeous !!!!

meerschaum is as sculpturers say an easy (soft) material to carf art work from but if you ask me this is all but easy to make, so detailed and fine just stunning,many thanks for sharing!!!
