Odd Old Pipes

Hoping someone here can shed some light on these. They belonged to my neighbor's Grandfather.

That's a hunter's pipe or Tyrolean.

Aha!
Thank you.

Must be missing a piece, then. And it's singular, a pipe.
Thanks again

^^^^ This
Do a Google search for “Tyrolean Pipe” and you will see what it should look like.

The pieces of your pipe has been connected wrongly
And it is missing its stem (usually a long piece made of cherry wood)

Yes, shopuld have a length of cherrywood (with the bark on) for a shank. The abguss, the lower-ost part which acts as a well to catch the tobacco juices, is connected wrong; the curled part should face the same direction as the bowl. The wide bit below the stem is a piece of antler.

I assumed from pipe listings that the difference amounts to the length of the middle part. A hunters pipe being shorter.

The knobs make for a good handle. I find that the easiest way to remember the proper placement of the lower part.

The terms are mostly interchangeable. Likely geographic variants.
