One of the oldest and rarest pipes I have is this Pierre Morel #483 I found in my late father closet. It's handmade by Pierre Morel Sr. Probably late 70s early 80s. It's stem was cracked. So I had to saw it and sand it. Then had to clean its stinger with alcohol and vinegar. And now she smokes beautifully

What a wonderful memento from your father's past! How marvelous it must be to connect with him through a pipe he had enjoyed many times. Wishing you many happy thoughts and remembrances. :clap:

You're lucky, my father did smoke a pipe when I was a kid, but he tossed them all before I was in middle school. I would love to have one of his pipes today.

Yeah, I hear you.. Maybe if you can get a replica of one of them, it'd be a bit nice to you.. do you recall what pipes did he have?
