Meerschaum. the beautiful white
earth which is used for expensive
pipes. is found in exceptional quaint
ties in the village of Brussa, in Ash
attic Turkey. where 1000 small mines
are being worked now.
Most of the miners are Persians
and Kurds. They dig a hole into the
earth till they strike bed of red clay
in which the meerschaum lies in kid
ney-shaped pieces, usually about as
big as walnut and rarely larger than
an apple. After a piece is dug out of
the clay it is cleaned by scraping the
surface with knife, and is then ready
for sale.
Every Friday the dealers gather,
and the meerschaum is sold in open
market. There arc four qualities
tiramall birembirlik, pambukli, and
dakme. The buyers come from Esk-
lschehF, and about dozen Of them
control the market. They wrap the
meerschaum carefully in cotton and
sell it for high prices. Only about
5000 pounds of Eskischehr meer-
schaum are obtained in a year.
