I just finished cleaning this one. A BBK, Brunner-Buhofer-Kompagnie.
Interesting history about the Maker.

Not really a fan of these types of pipes, visually, but I love the pic with the Sillem's tin. They complement each other well.

Wow, that is really something! It's not something I would personally smoke, but it's a cool pipe none the less. Very intricate detail!

That was a fascinating read and an incredible success story for such a cottage industry. The restoration you completed is magnificent, congrats.

Cool pipe and interesting history. Can't recall ever hearing of this brand before.

Very interesting, the silver work is very cool. Is the stem original? Looks like the old ones had horn stems. I love the black and silver combinations though, looks like a Pirates's pipe or something.

Thanks guys for the nice comments!
shaintiques, yes I think it is, I've seen a few others of the same design, all have this same type stem.
