Stored for 20+ years in the back of a closed, dark cabinet, recently \"released from captivity\" with a number of others (also for sale elsewhere on ).Looks like these amazing 40-year-old pipes were smoked just once or twice many years ago.
No one in family smokes now, none interested in the pipes. So....looking for a good home for these amazing vintage pipes. I could not find comparable pipes anywhere in my search, likely now VERY RARE.
See the pictures for a description, as I don\'t know the names of pipe shapes.
Backstory on the pipes and where they came from:
In trying to find out what kind of pipes these are, I did find that in the 1960\'s-70\'s these were named Fantasia pipes and were primarily made by Hilson/Belgium, then quite famous pipe-makers (they were marked Hilson then).
They were/are made with a proprietary resin with high-end and smooth-smoking block meerschaum as lining inside.
In 1980 Hilson was sold to Royal Dutch/Holland, hence the marking on the pipes in 1980 were initially changed to simply Holland. So, these pipes date to about 1980.
I\'m not a pipe collector and know very little about pipe values, so I\'ve decided to set a \"buy it now\" price to start and let collectors make offers they think are more reasonable. I\'ll probably have it listed for a couple of weeks and let them go to the best offer.USA sales/shipping only (shipping includes insurance). Feel free to make an offer or leave messages.
