Presentation Pipe Tomahawk

This is a handsome presentation pipe tomahawk. The pipe tomahawk is cast iron with a diamond shaped eye. The pipe stem is a rich brown with four rows of four silver diamonds inset into the wood and nailed with tiny metal brads. At the back of the stem is a silver heart also inset into the wood and secured with a single metal brad. The mouth piece is pewter as is the end holding the pipe to the stem. The stem has a great patina from use and wear. The pipe was smoked enough that you can taste the smoke if you draw air through it. This is the real thing. It is the kind of piece that will be a pleasure to show and have in your collection. L. 19",  L. of Pipe 8" c.1880-1890 #8874
