Old Pipe

[KILLER Tn]

I found this pipe in a creek with a gravel bottom. I had walked by this thing several times and thought it was a pipe fitting or elbow. I walked by it the last time and thought , wonder what this came off of, and picked it up, and then realized it was a smoking pipe. I wonder how old it is , who made it, where it came from ??

Looks a lot like some of the ceramic trade pipes from the mid 1800s.
Nice find.
Hope someone here can ID it for you.
