Effigy T-Pipe Made by Donnie Lemons or Billy Guthrie Mid to Late Century
Effigy T-Pipe Made by Donnie Lemons or Billy Guthrie Mid to Late Century. It appears to be an effigy of a swimming Bear or Otter. Pipes like this are made to have a stem. The holes are bigger and require a pebble be inserted in the bowl to reduce suction draw. Donnie and Billy worked closely for decades and their work is often similar. This one we couldn’t positively determine which maker it was by. It is made of a dark steatite and measures over 6" long and 3 7/8" tall.
