Wow Tex, that antique pipe is the nicest piece I've ever seen posted on this site hands down. The brasswork is beautiful. Before I enlarged the pic I thought it was made of a walrus tusk. Now I have no idea! Is it some type of ivory? Wow. Just... WOW.
Juicy, or Carrot Top :thumbsup::jointsmile: its koolQuote:

does anyone know how heavy ivory is compared to other tusks?
First one is named candy, it's the first pipe ive ever bought, got it 6 years ago, and i dont intend on ever breaking it.
Second one i just got two weeks ago from my friend for $20. It's color changing and i love it to death, sometimes i just get stoned and stare at it. It's named the joker because it looks like a joker's hat. Ive considered renaming it Maurice, or The Midnight Toker, in reference to the Steve Miller song.
(the last pic is my favorite)
I think any tusk is technically ivory, it's just a distinction between 'elephant ivory' 'walrus ivory' or um 'unicorn ivory' haha. I think wild boar tusks count as ivory as well, although I'm not certain.
I don't give them names but here are 3 of the many pipes , bongs and hookahs I own.
My custom white glass piece I got in Amsterdam blown right in front of me :)
Damn! how much did that set you back?Quote:
