No reserve price - Pipe - Alloy, Silver-Plated Metal

Beautiful and very old, a Chinese pipe dating back to the 19th century (estimated to be from the first half of the 1800s).
These objects, with the help of water, were used interchangeably for tobacco and opium.
Incredible, given its age and condition, it has been polished on all parts (completely dismantlable). We have verified that nothing is missing; in fact, it could still be used.
Incredibly fascinating, it features carved designs, women, cherry blossoms, and other ideograms across the entire base. At the bottom, an old brand from the era emerges. Irresistibly decorative and charming patina.
