Not much of a smoker but I thought the design of this one interesting. I got it because it was cheap and an interesting look. Got some Black Cavendish today and decided to give it a try.

Just spent few days in Sweden with wifey. Had some Larsen from Norup at the deck, near Furusund, while coming back home from Stockholm to Turku. Just a poor cell phone pic.

Hi Gents.
I have a quick question.
I bought this meerschaum as an estate a few weeks ago amd it's just been sitting. It's just been sitting as i have no idea how to clean an estate meer. Anybody have any ideas?

Nice egg!
That meer looks like it has never been used much so probably i would just leave it as is. Maybe you could try to remove the excess cake (if there's any) with the pipe reamer. If you have no reamer, then just wrap some sandpaper around pencil and try to scrath the excess cake away.
Be careful as meer is very fragile material. In any case you can't get it 100% white as new.
I've read that some folks have cleaned they meers by soaking some cotton wool vith vodka and then putting the stuff in the bowl. Wrap some plastic around the pipe to prevent alcohol from fading. Then leave it at least for few days. After this treatment the cake gets very soft and is easy to remove. But meer will get very soft as well so be very careful if you use the reamer. The pipe will also get some darkish color and it'll take weeks or even more until it fades back to the point where you started.
I've never tried this with meers. I rather use reamer and drink the vodka!eTom likes this.'That is what i do. I drink and i know things'
