I have found a lot of old clay pipe pieces in the past -- here is the first metal one ! I think it might be pewter but i'm not sure . anyone know how old it might be ?? Thanks .

Have to agree with Floater on that one..I would also say from the late 60's. They used to make them out of brass--not that I would know anything about that though
pipe maybe - or part of a light fixture - possibly - but then again - lots of people make pipes out of light fixture parts -
i see the rusty threaded part on the long peace - interesting to say the least
Rusty
I'm thinking, it's not a pipe, it looks like it could be a piece to an old torch, or maybe some form of old mining light?
Good luck on the ID,,, Interesting piece...
I found it in an old bottle dump behind an 1860's farmhouse . I have been finding alot of nice stuff there . There was a bunch rusty metal roofing that was thrown on top of the dump wich protected alot of the bottles from getting filled with rain . The pipe does not have a screen in it , but there is some burned residue in it . The bottom lip of the bowl is a little melted so
I think it was used alot . Thanks ,

George Washington grew hemp, so I imagine it could be a very old POT pipe!! It doesn't make sense why the lip would be "melted", if you got a pipe hot enough to melt, you surely wouldn't be putting your lips on it to smoke!!!
