Wondering on the origin of this pipe.
Any help is appreciated. Possibly German? Venetian? The patina is amazing!

Hey, a 420 pipe ! What is it made of ? Looks molded to me.
It’s solid wood! Definitely not molded lol
Guess it's hand carved then. Must be hard like ebony or lignumvitae. Is that a metal insert in the bowl ?
Guessing it is meant for smoking a cheroot.
It’s almost like a brass insert. Doesn’t seem to go all the way down. And it’s pressed in pretty good.
Yes the wood is very hard.
Probably for smoking something more valuable than tobacco. Any residual odor?
nice hash bowl ...
The psychedelic stuff came on strong in the 60's. Remember Dr. Timothy O'Leary?
Haha there’s absolutely no trace of that smell...I picked it up in Venice Italy ???????? and the gentleman was definitely a interesting one. He also gave me some card that went with it..said it once belonged to a demon haha and for me to take great care of it!
???? guy seemed very passionate! I just fell in love with it’s detail and patina! It’s definitely very old!
Great find! Looks early 20th century. I didn't know I wanted one until I saw yours lol on the hunt!
Thanks! Definitely early 20th possibly older!
