Pony Express corn cob pipe (straight stem)
17,90 €
An authentic Missouri Meerschaum:
The "Pony Express" is a corn cob pipe made by the American company Missouri Meerschaum. Its name refers to the mail delivering system between Missouri and California, in place at the beginning of the 1860s. It shares many similarities (shape and size of the bowl) with the Mizzou pipe, also made by Missouri Meerschaum, except for the stem's shape.
As with every corn cob pipe, it can last for a long time if properly taken care of (remember to draw slowly on corn cob pipes and take your time while smoking).
A pipe with a small bowl:
This pipe has an original shape, with a bowl in the shape of a barrel. Its small-sized bowl will allow for a short smoke (for about 5-10 minutes) and a small amount of tobacco. It is the perfect pipe to take a short break in the middle of a busy day!
On this pipe, the stem is short and especially thin. Its saddle shape allows to fit very well under the tooth. Corn cob pipes provide a naturally smooth smoke, which is why this one is meant to be smoked without filter.
Please note that the bowl can be smooth or have some slight irreularities depending on the stock.
