Description from the seller
No reserve price
Lot consisting of 3 vintage briar smoking pipes, antique and of different makes, ideal for collectors or restorers.
Details of the lot:
1. Wellington Pipe (Rusticated - Shaped):
Brand/Stamp: "WELLINGTON 905" clearly visible on the shank.
Finish: Rustic/Sandblasted dark.
Conditions: The bowl and shank are in good vintage condition, but the mouthpiece is heavily damaged/deteriorated and needs restoration or replacement.
1. Pipa Sefton Briar Foreign:
Brand/Stamp: "SEFTON BRIAR FOREIGN" engraved on the shank.
Finish: Smooth briar with carved/rusticated details along the shank.
Conditions: Generally good for its age, with normal signs of use on the bowl and finish. Mouthpiece intact.
Wellington Pipe (WDC 905): 1930s – 1950s. The WDC brand produced the Wellington line for many decades in the United States, but the layout of the stamping and the shaft shape are typical of mid‑century.
Pipa Sefton ("Foreign"): 1920s – 1940s. The term "Foreign" was mandatory in the United Kingdom between the World Wars to identify products imported from other European countries (often from France).
Bent Pipe with Ring: 1960s – 1970s. The finish style, the decorative ring, and the shape of the mouthpiece reflect the classic European mass production of the postwar era.
Conditions: Very good vintage aesthetic condition with natural briar patina.
Conditions and Notes:
State of preservation: Used / Vintage. Please carefully view the detailed photos to assess the exact condition of each piece (particularly the Wellington pipe mouthpiece).
Shipping: Fast and tracked shipping with careful protective packaging
