  • Brand: Charatan's Make
  • Condition: Very Light Use, just broken in(?) Excellent to Near Mint Condition. It has been brought to my attention by an eBay pipe expert that this style stem is very likely a generic replacement stem and is NOT original to this pipe. I would have to agree because this single dot stem has been showing up on a few different brand pipes in this collection.

    Description

    Charatan's Make "Executive Extra Large" Tobacco Pipe, "London England" from an avid collector friend.
    Excellent to Near Mint Condition with only very slight use marks to the inner chamber. May not be broken in and I am guessing this stem was replaced by my friend with a favorite style generic stem NOT because the original stem was worn out, but just changed out to a favorite stem?
    No bite marks at the bit lip or button area and the
    entire
    stem shows minute use inside and out.
    This pipe is surprisingly clean inside for sitting for so long and it's now obvious my friend retired his pipes with a
    adequate
    cleaning for retiring to a stand.
    I have not attempted to sanitize this pipe in any way. I dusted it.
    Not a sitter.
    This pipe is vintage, but I can't confirm it's age.
    Stamped in script:
    "Made By Hand"
    In
    City of London"
    Measures:
    Length: About 7-1/2"
    Bowl
    Height: 2-1/4
    "
    Chamber: I.D. Diam.: 1-1/8"...tapered
    Chamber Depth:
    1-1/2"
    Weight: About 2 ozs.
    As always combined shipping is encouraged.
    All of these pipes that I am offering were originally purchased new by my
    collectaholic friend of 45 years.
    He was
    eccentric,
    eclectic and a fastidious collector and I will be auctioning many of his different collections for his widow...
    May He Rest In Peace!
    I take the Virus situation VERY seriously and take all precautions with the
    sanitizing
    of myself, living quarters, packing boxes and
    materials
    , shipping room, auto, dog and the items I sell.
    I am a self-imposed recluse, one man shop, Germophobe and
    Phobophobe.
    I use terms like "Used", "Near Mint", "MIB"(mint in box), "MINT", "Never Been Used", "Vintage", "Excellent" as honestly and literally as I know how. I am human(they say) and capable of making mistakes and If you think I have incorrectly labelled or mis-described an item please let ME know, NOT eBay.
    As always, I will happily refund your purchase amount in full if you are not happy for any reason with any item.
    Thanks for looking, I hope you can use this well preserved Charatan!  Happy Bidding!
