It has been smoked before; but I know of no history on this pipe. This was an estate sale find. I don’t see any cracks or breaks. The metal lid sits on nicely, but doesn’t seem to want to stay on, if the pipe is moved erratically. Maybe that’s normal. It’s about 36 overall in length. Porcelain bowl with bird painting. Unscrews into nice smaller storage size. Please be familiar with these, as I know nothing about these vintage old pipes. I’m even assuming that it’s vintage but I don’t really know. So please be very, comfortable with these pictures and your knowledge of pipes. I will be happy to answer any question you have or will at least attempt to.
