Nice additions to your collection. The Meerschaum is a porous mineral and soaks up the juices from the tobacco and turns the pipe interesting colors. My IMP Meerschaum freehand looks weird, now, has a tan and brown caramel color to it, but still smokes cool and isn't bitter like briars can get sometimes. I like it...I think you'll end up liking yours too, I hope.
I've smoked pipes for 20 years...the Meerschaums have become my favorites because I don't have to 'rest' them after every two bowls...I can smoke the same pipe all day long. They don't seem to "break in" either...they don't form a cake like a briar does. Haven't had to ream mine yet....
Ah yeah I usually have a much longer beard but I recently shaved for a job interview. It shall return. Love the Bjarne, thanks for the introduction to them.
3 beautiful looking pipes there. I liked the simplicity of that meerschaum. I agree that I don't like the overly ornate ones either.
Cheers, Alan

I see you succumbed to the mandatory beard for pipe smokers :-) Congratulations on the pipes
