Calabash Mystery (Old Soul)

[Humblepipe]

Gents,

This Calabash is stamped "Genuine Calabash" on its shank. The only other stamping is on other sterling silver band. It is distinct, but I do not recognize it, nor can I find anything on the web. Ideas?

Thanks so much!

Unless the silver has British hallmarks, dating is at best, a guesstimate, at worst, impossible.

If it comes in a case, sometimes the name of the maker or tobacconist/pipemarchant (if well-known) may help narrow the period it comes from.
