Measuring 13" in length, 3 3/4" tall and 3 1/5" wide, the main body of the pipe is white in color with light brown highlights overall, showing a darker brown in some of the carved areas. Carved into the pipe is a three dimensional scene of a herder in pursuit of a pair of cattle. Mounted on horseback, the herder has a percussion rifle slung across his back, the reins in his left hand and a lariat in his right, having successfully roped the neck of a bull, which is pulling hard on the line while the horse pulls in the opposite direction. Meanwhile, on the other side of the bowl, a cow hidden from the cowherd by a set of fronds and leafy branches is making good it's escape. The bowl is blended into the scene by being decorated as a tree stump, with a large frond on the front side and a wood bark pattern along the underside of the body. Fitted with an amber mouthpiece, decorated with an octagonal ebony section with orange dot highlights.

Excellent. The pipe has aged beautifully as the lower section a cream color growing to a more aged patina at the top, similar to aged ivory. A small section of lariat is absent immediately behind the bull, with a few tiny chips and age cracks overall. Otherwise a spectacular conditioned pipe. An excellent addition to an advanced pipe collection.
