Description:

A handcrafted khatam pipe that draws you in at first touch. Fully functional yet sculptural, its surface is entirely covered in traditional khatam marquetry, with each geometric piece set by hand and sealed under a high-gloss resin finish. Designed for collectors and design lovers who value craftsmanship beyond mass production.

Craftsmanship

The pipe is made using real khatam marquetry: miniature pieces of brass, wood, and bone arranged into repeating star motifs. Everything is sanded, shaped, assembled, lacquered and polished by hand. This level of detail takes time and real skill, which is why these pipes are rare even inside the craft world.
