It's a lovely pipe. Do you know how old it is? What model is it? The sleeve and box are in great condition.

I discovered a senior's pipe standard about three years in that held that only tapered stems, never saddles, deserved the highest aesthetic accolades; in this lovats with their long shanks and short stems were disallowed.

So although this pipe is beautiful, and I would like it, the conditioning above prevails.

Of course, you have a beautiful pipe, and although I would wish to admire it outright, my previous experience intrudes.

I wonder if Barling ever made pipes for Orlik. Did Orlik manufacture their own during this period?

don't mind me asking -how much? - pricerange is sufficient
Well just as a comparison, in my country it was the same price as a new Peterson or some savinelli’s and of course a lot higher than what you would pay for those in the States.
It was around 200 dollars.

Pipes are not quite cheap here. But considering it’s a very old pipe, unsmoked and in perfect condition with its box and all, for me it ended up being much more valuable than a Peterson or savi that costs the same over here. And I already have some savis purchased in Italy so...

As far as I know they were independent at that time. But others could correct me if I’m wrong.
