Your Shirley Temple gif with pipe got me thinking of these 1930s postcards of her with a clay pipe

Okay, I have to ask. What are you doing with the deer antler pieces?
I’ve cut them up over the years and use them for many different things. The dog loves to chew them, flint napping tools and a pipe tamper. I’ve
always wanted to make a set of checkers out of deer or elk antlers.?
Do you carve pipes? If so, I would imagine these would be beautiful accents.
Antler was used as part of the shank set up in certain alpine pipes and even for pipe bowls

Having Wilke #515 in a Savinelli Cavalier. No idea of the model number. Anyone know?

Yes, definitely less of a mouthful than the name this shape is known as - a Gesteckpfeife, 'Hunter's Pipe' or Tyrolean pipe - more often seen with a painted or transfer on a porcelain bowl.

I've seen this pipe with SAVINELLI ITALY stamped on the mount on one side and ZENITH HOLLAND on the other so look like a collaborative effort between Italy and Holland

Dunhill released a version in 1936 which has recently been reissued in very limited quantities.
