I would just like to know if anyone has come across a vintage artistic pipe with greek-style sterling silver

braids on the bowl and handle. It was purchased in the 1970's in athens, greece. It was my father's.

It was stolen in baton rouge, Louisiana.
This is a very beautiful pipe and i'm sure not too many are in the united states.

I would appreciate if anyone knows the where-abouts.
thannks.

Very sorry to hear about your loss. It would be prudent to watch Ebay sales for a starter. I wish you luck with getting your heirloom back.

Any chance you have a picture? It would help tremendously.

A picture would definitely help.

I am going to move this to the General Pipe Smoking Discussion.

Even a drawing would probably spark some identification. People usually respond well to graphics.

Best of luck in someone finding it.

No more response, and only 1 post. They must not really care about the heirloom, or they would be following up with more information, pics, or such.

Or she is busy and not savvy on the workings of forums. She may not know what chatty Cathys we are. I say we wait another day to see if she checks in, then someone should call her and ask for a pic to be posted.
