<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 586030, member: 6444&quot;]This was mixed in with some old tobacco pipes, mostly European. I can&#039;t see how it could be a pipe unless a lot of parts are missing, which is certainly possible. Thought maybe it was a flute but can&#039;t get it to make a sound. Not antique, based on appearance I don&#039;t think it is older than 3rd, 4th quarter 20th century. Collector had Native American and Asian (Japanese) items, I can imagine it being either, or neither. Top of wood container does not come off, opens to allow access but stays attached with string. Looks like the remains of a paper sticker on the base of the squash/fruit. Stick piece is 8-1/2 inches, squash is 4 inches.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does anyone have any clues?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]175793[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]175794[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]175795[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]175796[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]175797[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]175798[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]175799[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]175800[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
