Found this while cleaning out my fathers estate. I think it is from his father or possible his grandfather...it has a crystal in the tip with a picture of a naked woman ! Never seen anything like it. Anyone know anything about it? Please let me know! Thanks !

Called a Stanhope-- small lense with an image inside.

Thank you. Is it a functioning pipe as well?

I don't see anywhere to put the tobacco for a pipe. Maybe it was meant for cigarettes? The bone piece in your last photos shows some burn marks where (maybe) a rolled cigarette was inserted.

Ok thank you, that makes sense. I have no idea what it was used for and the hole is so small so perhaps a rolled cigarette was inserted into the hole.
