Morta

By The Zor, 3 February, 2010, No Comment

Sounds creepy. But it is not, except the way it is “produced”.

This morning, as usual with the coffee I opened my favorite blogs.  I don`t read the news because they all have ugly prints and they only make me fell uncomfortable with the world around me. so…no news, just blogs about motorcycles and pipes smoking (now that it is still winter).

On one of my favorite blogs I have found an article about a nice pipe made out of morta.  The site is called A Passion for Pipe and it is run by NEILL ARCHER ROAN, who writes great articles about pipes and smoke. Ok, back to the morta pipe. What is morta, it looks great, a hard, unstaind black wood. Following the only link from the article I have found a site about morta wood, which is commonly known as – abanos. It was one of those AHHHHHHH! moments when you realize that a person is not too old to learn something new each day. And! I have to hunt such a pipe for my collection.

In 1946, Marcel Duchamp carved a pipe for fellow surrealist Enrico Donati, engraved it with the words “Marcel a Enrico” and gave it to his friend.
