Swiss pipe

[Foot hill]

Thought I'd share this

This was shown to me by my wife's mother. She said I belonged to her great grandfather who brought it over from Switzerland before 1855. Anyone know anything about it?

Jungfrau pipes of Sweden

Try that in your Google search engine and it will give you some interesting information. It appears hard, at least for me, to find much on those fancy pipes. Jungfrau was a pipe maker and may not be your maker, but it will give you a starting point, hopefully.

I would think that if it was brought over before 1855 as the OP states then it isn't a repro.IMO
