Ehrlich Pipe Stem Replacement

[JPh]

Where would you go to find a stem for that Ehrlich French briar pipe? Are those standard (would a Missouri Meerschaum corn cob stem fit for instance)? I can't see a lot of choices online.

Check out my thread I posted back in December. I purchased a pipe that was missing the stem from an antique shop for $2. I sent it to Briarville for a replacement stem.

If this is the same pipe that's currently on ebay, it looks like the shank has a crack in it when you zoom in. Looks like a crack to me....or maybe it's not.

It's that same pipe. I'm no expert and I thought I'd buy a few pipes from that seller. You think it's not good deal?

I'm not an expert either. I would be concerned if that is a crack in the shank. I would pass on it...that's me, only you can make that decision.

Does it look like a crack to you?

Looks like a crack to me and in a very bad location. I wouldn't risk it.

Ok. Thanks, folks.
