BEAUTIFUL SMOKING PIPE WITH CARVED WOLF'S HEAD

THIS SMOKING PIPE WITH WOLF'S HEAD CARVED OUT OF WHAT I THINK IS WALNUT. WAS CARVED BEAUTIFULLY BY A MASTER CRAFTSMAN , THE DETAIL IS SUPERB RIGHT TO THE TEETH IN THE MOUTH AND THE PINK TONGUE. AND THE REALISTIC LOOKING GLASS EYES... THIS PIPE IS IN GOOD CONDITION AND HAS BEEN SMOKED BEFORE. IT PROBABLY NEEDS A FINE SANDING DOWN AND RE-VARNISHING.I WOULD PRESUME THAT IT IS GERMAN OR BAVARIAN.
