Facts, not a grade. We do not score a pipe out of ten: a number would rank a restored pipe above an honest one, and restoration is exactly what this hobby prices down. Every line above is checkable by anyone holding the pipe. Lines marked Faridunhill standing declaration rest on our published, dated statement of shop practice (v1.0, 2026-07-29) — not on an inspection of this individual pipe. It is one document, in public, that you can hold us to.
A Charlotta München bag in black leather for four smoking pipes, with room for a tobacco tin, accessories and a cleaner. It still has its Charlotta name tag, attached to the bag on a black cord.
Closed, it is a black case of grained leather with rounded corners, and the closure runs around its edge. Inside, the bag opens flat into two halves, and each half has a row of leather loops across the middle.
A pipe bag of this kind gives each pipe its own place, with the tobacco, the accessories and the cleaner kept beside it.
THE MARKS - CHARLOTTA over MÜNCHEN, in raised letters on the metal name tag; the letters are clear.
München is the city of Munich. No source ties this bag to a year or a model line. The last photograph shows a Charlotta catalogue page with a range of the firm's pipe bags and cases, for reference.
The pipes shown in the photographs are not included.
THE MEASUREMENTS - Length: 200 mm (7.87 in) - Height: 125 mm (4.92 in) - Width: 50 mm (1.97 in) - Weight: 180 g (6.35 oz)

This record is append-only. Nothing is deleted — a correction is a new entry that supersedes the old one, and both stay visible.
Nobody leaves empty-handed. If you hold the catalogue page, the dated advertisement, or a hallmarked sibling that closes one of these — or simply own this model and can measure yours — send it in. Contributions are checked, credited to you by name, and the record is updated with the date it changed.
Faridunhill shop post, 2026-11-09. Published to a third-party platform on that date and archived since — a timestamp we cannot move. It is evidence that this object existed and looked like this, then.
The photographs are the identity. 7 images of this pipe's grain, stamping and stem are held as its fingerprint. The handle above is only a handle: lose it, and the pipe can still be matched back to this record from its grain.
