I've been going through my not usually smoked pipes looking to trim down the collection on ebay... and I rediscovered this old(?) GoedeWaagen double-walled ceramic pipe that I never really smoked because I thought it may have been just a decorative piece. It has a massive bowl, and I packed about halfway with Solani 633... and it smokes great! Does anyone know more about these things?

Yes, it's a mid 20th century Baronite made of enamelled clay (not porcelain)

According to Pipedia, "While Goedewaagen pipes were originally traditional and figural clays, after the invention of the double walled clay pipe by Zenith, also a Gouda company, Goedewaagen began producing pipes in that commonly seen style, which they marketed as The Baronite Pipe, advertised for its clean smoking and health benefits. Since the company’s bankruptcy in 1982, however, they have made only the occasional souvenir pipe, including a line commemorating Holland’s monarchs."
