Product Description
The Stubby Corn Cob Pipe is another clever design from Missouri Meerschaum, although not quite a nose warmer it does have short stem, the whole pipe measures 120mm. For a short pipe, the acorn shaped bowl is quite a generous size and holds a good amount of tobacco for a nice leisurely smoke. The bowl has an excellent smooth finish and is stained dark to give a burnished look. A Cumberland style Italian acrylic mouthpiece and nickel band finish the pipe off nicely.
The Missouri Corn Cob pipes remain popular today because they are inexpensive and require no difficult "break-in" period like briar pipes. Made from naturally dried corn cobs, they deliver the warm, mellow qualities corn cob pipes are known for, with a porous structure that naturally absorbs moisture for a cooler, drier smoke.
Missouri Corn Cob pipes are equally valued by both learners, and experienced smokers who simply desire a cool, clean smoke.
The cob may show some chipping on its rim over time this is a normal trait of natural corn-cob construction and doesn’t affect performance. Also note due to the natural materials used, the finish of each pipe may vary slightly.

History...
The Missouri Meerschaum Company is a tobacco smoking pipe manufacturer located in Washington, Missouri. It is the world's oldest and largest manufacturer of corncob pipes.
The company was founded in 1869 when Dutch-American woodworker Henry Tibbe began producing corncob pipes and selling them in his shop. Tibbes likened the pipes to meerschaum pipes and thus named them "Missouri Meerschaum." In 1878 Tibbe patented his method of fireproofing the pipes by applying a plaster-like substance to the outside of the cob. In 1883 Tibbe and his son Anton applied for a U.S. Patent to trademark their Missouri Meerschaum pipe. In 1907 H. Tibbe & Son Co. became the Missouri Meerschaum Company.
