Description from the seller

Vintage Figural Alpine / Tyrolean Smoking Pipe with Wind Cap – Mid 20th Century

Decorative figural smoking pipe in Alpine style, featuring a carved bearded man’s head wearing a traditional hat.

The pipe combines:
• Sculpted figural bowl (meerschaum-style composite material, lacquered finish)
• Metal wind cap with ventilation holes
• Long wooden stem (bamboo-style design)
• Decorative cord with wooden beads

This type of pipe was typically produced in Germany or Austria in the mid-20th century (circa 1950–1980), inspired by traditional Tyrolean and Bavarian motifs.

The bowl is not natural meerschaum but a lacquered composite material in meerschaum style.

Condition: Vintage, previously used. Normal signs of age and handling. Metal cap intact and functional. No visible structural cracks. Interior shows typical traces of use consistent with its age.

An eye-catching decorative pipe with strong Alpine character – suitable both for display and collection.

Carefully packed for safe shipping.
