Yes to both. I don't smoke it often. Maintenance of these sterling pieces is more labor intensive when used.

Hah! Joke's on me! While I was setting up this tutorial, you figured it out yourself! Excellent!
Yes...but at my age, how long will I remember? Thanks for sticking with me.
Stephan, your Hungarian mother's father would have carried this while he possibly smoked my pipe in 1896. This watch was my grandfather's. It goes with the pipe.
Now the meat of it: It would be a bewildering task to just pick up a vintage pipe and put a date on it but with a a bit of research, I discovered that this coat of arms was only used by Hungary from 1896 to 1914. Afterward, the supporters were 2 angels. Here, at the time frame 96-14, the supporter were branches of oak and Olive.
The pocket watch is a Waltham from Massachusetts. When Germany pulled the Austrian Empire into WWI. Kaiser Bill here, was telling Franz Joseph that "Unity Makes Strength".
My grandfather was a US Customs Inspector and the moment that the USA entered the war, the shipment of these watches, became "Enemy Contraband" and everyone went home at the end of the day, with a watch. My grandfather gave it to me, when I was 10 years old.

This is my "outside pipe" for when I walk my acreage and feed the wild ducks on my pond. Being a Country Squire is a hard life but someone has to do it.
Bellissimo! Well done, and nice photos.
Now I have to ask: In what country, county, province, state, city, town—your choice of how specific— do you perform your squiring duties?

As for, "What kind of tobacco"? I cannot answer that. I am sure someone here can. Try 19th c. middle European from the Carpathian Mountains, high Tatras, between Poland and Slovakia, where my in-laws come from as Lemkos. Nail it down. I'd like to know too. I'm sure, that tobacco, is still being offered by some producer/retailer.
As for my location to Squire in; the rolling hills and mountains of New York in the upper middle reaches of the Appalachian chain. HONK HONK

I'm glad you figured it out!
Sadly I have nothing of my grandfathers. They fled Hungary with the clothes on their back when the Communists invaded and settled in West Germany. (my then 18 year old mother met my US Army father at a refugee camp in Austria).
I'll be up in NY at the end of this week, working the NY Thruway from Junius Ponds to Hannacroix, then home. I can usually bring a pipe to smoke outside the hotel, but looks like not on this May visit.

I'm 2+ hours north of TPark
1956, NEM, NEM SHO-HA. (phoenic). Ask your mom if she is still with us. We are about the same age. Do you have the language? I was raised by my Polish, lithuanian grand parents. "In every Hungarian, the Pole has a brother".
That's a long schlep from H-twn. You could still see pipe weather. Maybe I can fix you up with my Hungarian pipe? My furnace holds 1/3 cup of dry measure. It's like filling a waste basket. It's a weekend pipe. Fill it on Saturday morning and put it away Sunday night after it may have extinguished itself.

She can speak Hungarian, but there is no one to speak with her around here, so I think she probably forgets all but the basics (she just turned 90 a few weeks ago).
As a little boy, she had me memorize this poem we would recite this song together, sort of the Hungarian version of our Pledge of Allegiance.
Talpra magyar, hí a haza!

What I know about Hungarian pipes is nothing, but the Hungarian shape is the preferred name, one that some insist on calling Oom Paul.
I love my Hungarian pipes, one's a Parker, one's a Barling, and one's a Chacom, and one a no-name.

Stephan,
That was nice to hear. My grandmother told me that Hungarian and Estonian were the two most difficult languages for her. They didn't have Slavic roots.
At a very young age, my GM told me that I wasn't an American and to prove it, she brought out the atlas and pointed out that I was born in Brooklyn, on an island, off shore.
Nem, nem sho-ha, means, "no no never". The 1956 cry of the revolution that was a travesty.
PM me your address. I will "gift" you a book that will explain your mom's moving.
Sorry but I couldn't work a pipe into this one. Oh wait! My Ukraina pear wood arrived in today's mail.
