I have been scouring this antique shop for weeks looking at mostly pipe related things. Nothing really stood out to me, Grabows, Kaywoodies, a few Brylon pipes etc.
But today I found a section of pipes that weren't in glass cases. Again, most UN named pipes, but there was a hidden gem.
Yes the quality is to put it nicely, rough. Caked, cracked, and there's a tiny pin hole in the bottom of the bowl. But I've never owned one, and for the price I paid, I couldn't say no.
I know nothing of them, so maybe people can help me with dates, and what I should do with it. Attempt the restore myself? Send it to a professional? I'm eagerly waiting to hear what every one says.
