Sasieni Royal Stuart — Shape 29n

[Jbrewer2002]

Edit: No all caps please. You had "29n" in the title- no idea what that means.

I just picked this pipe up today on eBay. There was a post on here that suggest that all Sasieni Royal Stuart pipes that have an enter-twined R S was probably pre 1979. Anyone have any more info on this pipe. I may have paid too much but I really liked the grain and shape and from the picture I think it should clean up nice.

To the moderator- 29n is the shape of the pipe. Sorry about the all caps I copied and pasted it from the listing.

I updated the title to reflect the shape number.
I was not aware Sasieni 2nd lines could be dated.

 

[Jbrewer2002]

I didn’t either. But I saw this post on here so I thought I would ask if someone knows more about this particular line. Guess it really doesn’t matter. Just curious and thought it would be a good talking point.

Dave knows his stuff, too bad he's no longer a member of the forum.

I can't tell you much about the pipe, but I think it will clean up really well, especially that rim.

I think it cleaned up great. Smoking it for the first time now. I wasn’t paying attention when I was cleaning the stem and the logo is now almost gone. All well I guess. I didn’t buy it as a collector. So far smokes great. It has a stinger that I pulled out.

That pipe came out nicely!

An old trick that Al taught me was to run a white c r a y o n over the logo. Assuming it isn't buffed smooth, you might be able to salvage some of it.

I now use white acrylic nail polish, but those Sasieni 2nd line stem stamps are very shallow and difficult to retain.

Nice job cleaning that up. Not bad finish for $50 too. ️

Ya I noticed when I received it the logo was barely there. I wasn’t sure is this was the way they come, a result of past buffing, or both. Sounds like they were shallow to begin with. Thanks.

The grain and finish is what drew me to this pipe. I don’t know anything about the “seconds” lines but thought it was worth a shot.

As long as it’s a good smoker for you. ️

It smoke like a dream. There are a few sand pits but nothing major. This will be one of my travel and camping pipes.
