The listing, Antique Estate Lion Briar Pipe has ended.
I got this years ago at an estate sale. It's a very old pipe. The listing had the metal work as silver, but it doesn't seem to tarnish like silver does so I suspect it's not. It's absolutely stunning though and I picked it up because I'd never seen anything like it. It's been kept in my humidor for years. Never smoked it myself. Obvious wear on the stem, but still holds tight to the pipe. Has a metal insert instead of a filter, which i've never seen. I can't 100% confirm it's briar because the metalwork covers the spot where you would expect the name to be. The cage around the bowl separated at one point, but could easily be soldered back. I just didn't want to mess it up. It's been in my humidor long enough. Lets see it go to someone who really likes it. Metalwork is positively stunning. Photos don't do it justice. Will ship priority with tracking number. shipping paid via paypal only plz only to verified address.
