New Pipe With Nice Stem

[coffinmaker]

Well, another pretty stem pipe grabbed me. This is a filtered pipe, of which I'm not a fan of, but the stem, my weakness. This stem is harder than the forever style stems. Could this be Amber? The pipe has no markings, no stem marking. The stem has a metal sleeve that fits into the pipe and takes a Medico Paper filter. Who made this pipe? It does smoke very well.

I wasn't fast enough to edit the first post.

Very nice, that's my kind of pipe. Does the tenon have a snug fit? I had one of similar construction for awhile. I think it was a no name also.

Very nice pot. The stem looks like Lucite to me. Enjoy it.

That is definitely Lucite

@mcitinner1 -- snug, stem fits really well, do you smoke yours with the filter? I'm surprised that someone won't own up to making it. Lucite - Poly(methyl 2-methylpropenoate)(Poly(methyl methacrylate)also known as acrylic or acrylic glass as well as by the trade names Plexiglas, Acrylite, Lucite, and Perspex among several others. I had to look it up. Thanks all. I filled it with a mix of trash tobacco and even that was good in this pipe. Most likely the paper filter. BUT, the filter must go!

Looks like an awesome pipe!

Looks somewhat Dr. Grabow-like, although I can't think why it wouldn't have a logo or stamp or both. Or a Medico when they did mostly briar rather than Brylon. I don't see it as a Kaywoodie or a Yello-Bole. I could be either a second of some kind or a pipe that's been refinished.

I agree with cobbsmoker,looks to be an unstamped Royalton. There's a lot of unstamped Grabows out there.

Thanks y'all.
