It's a brass Regent. Medium quarter-bent. I've found a replacement-- but what I may be looking for now is any Kirsten in the so-called "Western" or "Traditional" finish, which was a gold-coppery color from the early 1970s (there were polished and satin versions). Do you by any chance have one of those? Here's a satin one.


Here's the replacement. Purchasing from Doug Bisbee, who spiffs up Kirstens. He made the stem, a color Kirsten never offered, deep Royal blue to go with the gold, and the one bowl I never was able to get: the mid-2000s Turkish-made meerschaum, in my preferred finish (lattice, vs. smooth) and my favorite shape (the sharp-looking "Mandarin").

Do you by any chance have a "Western" finish? If yours needs work, I suggest Rebornpipes, who does a great job, or Doug Bisbee at DKMetalPipes (I don't know if Doug restores ion spec, he may just sell).
