Just saw this on eBay. Very interesting design, but it's coming from China and the current bid is only five cents (plus $18 shipping). Also the weld where the stem goes into the body looks funny. I think the dragon head should be on the other end. It doesn't look very comfortable hold in the mouth. Supposedly made from silver and jade.

Gee, you think this is where "chasing the dragon" came from?
ReplyDeleteThat is an awesomely designed pipe. The weld does look odd - either that that was an area where it perhaps broke off and was re-welded poorly or maybe a design flaw from the beginning. It is cool-looking, though. Funny that the shipping is more than the bid for the pipe itself. Update us on it if you buy it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't bid on it. It sold for a nickel plus the shipping.
