    That shag cut burned quick. Anyhow, the Meer came with a 2nd stem, supposedly genuine amber. Funny thing is, the stem doesn't fit the pipe.

    I'd use that thing-a-majigger for those Man-O-War cigarillos!

    I believe you're right. A cigarette fits in there perfectly. Now the question is, why? I've never seen anyone smoke a cigarette through something like this, ever.

    Years ago cigarette holders were a big thing for women

    Kept their fingers from getting nic/tar stains.

    Just to be clear ^^^ , and while the obviously funny interpretation may apply as well, I seem to remember pictures of FDR smoking with a cigarette holder. And Thurston Howell III.

    Didn't want the DEI police coming after me.

    If I’m not mistaken the Nic/tar stains were also part of the reason for the gloves worn by a lot of the aristocratic crowd.

    It was a freebie so I can't complain. If it had been a Meer tamper it would have been a real bonus.

    Might make a nice chillum.

    Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

    That was my first thought too, back in the day that's what we called things that looked like that.
