[QUOTE="mattia76, post: 345595, member: 387"] Hey fellas, I just got this old Comoy's Case and Bowl in a lot. As you can see, it is missing a stem. As my collection is becoming all things Olde and English, I'm thinking about getting a replacement stem made for this. The hallmark is a lowercase "n" which is either from 1908 or 1928. I am leaning toward 1928. Questions: 1. Does anyone have enough hallmark and Comoy's dating experience to definitively answer whether it is a 1928 or a 1908? I've seen the hallmark charts and they are pretty darn similar. 2. Does anyone have a sterling mount pipe from this era that could show me how the stems and tenons look? 3. Who would you recommend for re-creating a vintage stem that would fit the pipe and fit the case? Thanks guys!
