At 4.25" long it's a shorty. This probably started out as an oxblood stained pipe that has faded from smoking. It's now a nice sunset orange. The stem has some interior crazing. It's probably amberoid. But it has no chip or tooth wear. It's a nice smoking pipe.

Thats a nice example of the transition away from 'cutty' pipes and the move towards pre-colored meerschaums that started in the late 1900's. How old are the silver hallmarks?

Now that is nice! I do not own any Meerschaum pipes except for the two Falcon bowls from Meerqueen, but if I saw something like that I would bit hesitate to buy it.

Was watching that one. If memory serves, it went for peanuts. Lovely pipe. Congrats.

It's an American pipe. The band marks (aside from CPF and Sterling) are just for looks. But I agree it's 1900-ish.
It looked more pink on the ebay listing. Bad photos.
