Pipe is canted Dublin, stamped W.W.W.Assembled with extension it\'s very long - 20\".There are 2 stems - 1 is real amber and another one is horn.Extension is also made of horn.
Bowl has a dent on the outer rim - see pictures.Horn extension was repaired to seal a hairline crack, and now it is airtight, so pipe can be used with extension.Case requires professional restoration.
