This is a very old German Hunter Pipe made of porcelain (ceramic) and wood. The front of the bowl has an image of a fox.This belonged to a grandfather who lived from 1883 to 1966. He owned a tobacco shop in Idaho in the 1920s. Estimate they may be about 100 years old. It has been stored in our home for about 35 years. It appears to never have been used - hence listed as \"New.\" We havenotattempted to clean or polish the pipe or stem. There are no manufacturer markings we can find.The ceramic pieces are in excellent shape with no chips, cracks, scratches or crazing of the glaze. The stem appears to be a natural wood stem - still with the bark. It is neatly threaded on the top end and has cork adhered at the bottom. The mouthpiece shows no sign of wear and has clean threads. The mouthpiece and stem thread together securely. The cork on both pieces is in good shape, with a small issue in the cork at one location - see photo with hand holding bottom piece.The bowl has a metal cover with a secure clasp and hinge. The image of the fox is clear. The pipe has an absolutely clear airway.The tassels (2) appear to be natural hair. The cording is still vibrant green with no fraying, breaks, or knots.Please see the plethora of photos and video on this listing for full condition and send questions before offerding/buying.Note: This pipe will ship UNASSEMBLED to help protect all pieces from damage during shipping.
