Unknown Sandblasted Panel Estate Briar Pipe, Other Estates

Description

I’m not sure who made this pipe, though I presume it came from one of the English or American makes, and the reference to “imported briar” makes it seem to be mid-century or slightly earlier. I do like it though. It’s a panel billiard, or a saddle foursquare, design, with wonderfully craggy sandblasting reminiscent of the Dunhill, Barling, or Charatan pipes of that era.

The condition is good. Rim darkening and some finish fading.
