[QUOTE="gigi flic, post: 13127755, member: 91293"]Austrian second half of the 19th century, although I was unable to find info about the manufacturer. But it has 2 broken pieces. The boars snout and to the left of it i think its missing the mouthpiece of the hunting horn. But they look like clean straight breaks. Question is if someone has experience working with meerschaum. I think i can find an old simple pipe for raw material and i have a box full of dental tools i could probably make use of. The pipe is 30 cm in length. Broken pieces maybe 1 cm not more.
