I scooped these up at Savers today. Pretty cool.
I can smell this picture lol. My grandfather used to have the cool Avon aftershave bottles!
That's what I was thinking, that these are cologne bottles----using the word cologne loosely. It's what you gave somebody that you didn't know what to give them, or, what you would give to your grandfather. I don't think they make these anymore. Too bad.

What does the stamping on the Kaywoodie say? It looks like the same finish they used in the Coral White Briar. I like it!

I'd like to talk about this thing some more.

Is it really a decanter or can you smoke it?

If it's a decanter, what did it hold, originally?

If it's really a pipe, how does it smoke?

With all that ceramic, I'd bet it would deliver a cool, dry smoke.

If it delivers a cool, dry smoke, who cares what it looks like?

I have the same humidor. Found it in a junk shop a few years ago. I have been adding partially smoked pouches of Captain Black White for a long time and its almost full. The idea was to always try the CB fresh and I almost never made it through a full pouch. I opened it up yesterday and the tobacco still smells and feels fresh.as a new pouch. I don't know whether its the quality of the humidor or PG in the tobacco. Either way I'm smoking it now. Tastes the same it always did and some of the tobacco is at least five years old.

These things are very cool. If I ever see one at a thrift store I'll snag it.

However, I don't understand the configuration.

Six different pipes but only one tobacco?
ever forward
