Super. That will possibly help some of the folks on here get closer to helping you solve the mystery of your pipe.

Nice save on the clay pipe. Well Done.

Very well could have been a trade pipe or early settlers. Somewhere on here is a picture of the pipes that several company's made.Surprised like you that any paint remains.

This would be better if posted in the "What is it" forum or Native American Artifacts. If you wish it moved send me a pm or like.

The paint makes me think not Relly that old since it was found in river mud which would certainly work on any paint. But I am not a mud expert.
