Howdy folks, been a while since I been here, good to be back... puffy

I just won this one on ebay and now it looks as it needs a good restoration.

Wellington Imported Briar Wood Tobacco Pipe Vintage | eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/Wellington-Imported-Briar-Wood-Tobacco-Pipe-Vintage/163979852803?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

Can anyone suggest someone to do it and maybe they can open up the flow for better volume on the draw as well?

That’s a nice looking pipe. Doesn’t look like it needs a lot. As a beginning restorer I would love to see a step by step of what you do. ?

That looks like it is Peterson "House Pipe" size! I agree, a relatively simple restoration.
Opening the draw with that long stem could be a challenge, I suspect that might be where the restriction lies.

I’ve got a few myself... Nice pipe when you’ve got a little time.

Nice looking pipe. I won a Wellington on ebay a few months back. Similar pipe but with a shorter stem. It is a good smoker.

I don't know if he's on here but I'd like to thank Mike at Walker Pipe Repair, I think he did a fantastic job on restoring my pipe... puffy
