Estate Kaywoodie Churchwarden

[SmokeyJock]

I was given an early xmas present today of an old kaywoodie churchwarden! The vulcanite stem needs a little cleaning, the metal a polish, the stummel a wax and the bowl a ream, but it's beautiful! A London made kaywoodie apparently, will post photos later this evening

Long boi. Nice gift.

Some more photos. Have given the stummel a light polish with some renaissance wax and toothpasted the stem. Struggling to get good photos of all the markings on it with this phone, but they are: "Kaywoodie Churchwarden" on one side, and "Made in London England", "ESP", and "2899" on the other. Can't find much about England-made kaywoodies online and it seems like dating them is a rather imprecise art, if anyone can shed any light on it I'd be grateful! Has a few fills so I can't imagine it's from one of their fancier lines
