I'm thinking he means he wants a meerschaum pipe carved into the likeness of ol' Chucky D.

I am looking for a meerschaum pipe that is carved in the likeness of Charles Darwin. Have you ever seen such a pipe, and if so might you tell me where so that I could procure one?

for example, here are meerschaum pipes that are carved in the likenesses of other people that are not Darwin and hence do not satisfy one of my criteria.

see Ratimus's more succinct reply if further clarity is required (though Chuck D should still be the great scientist and not the hardcore political rapper with a Flava Flave sidekick)

I don't think there are many pipe makers outside of Turkey carving meerschaum portraits.
Sadik Yanik is a Turkish carver that takes commissions and does beautiful work.
