The one on the right your right. Here is a photo of that one. It was made in China and sold to sailors of the US Navy Asiatic Fleet maybe to gun boat sailors like that movie the sand pebbles with Steve McQueen if you never seen that movie it's worth a watch. This pipe I paid a lot for but there one on Ebay that the guy wants double so I think I did OK this one has a makers mark still trying to find more info on it.

Very nice. Impressive.  Is the one in the right lower corner the one from China? It looks really nice and ornate. Dave

Here is the collection got one other pipe in my Navy retirement shadow box. I could show each pipe and country, but some are vintage US Navy, you can see those in the US Military forum in the Navy section.

I would think that's a difficult jacket to find - Chinese nationalist, tailor made, dated.   Steve 

Would like to see a picture of the collection. Can you post one? Dave

I have about eight boatswain pipes in my collection. One is one I used in the US navy it got a little out of hand lately added three the last few months that were not cheap like this one an early Russian one and one I might have overpaid for an early dragon boatswain pipe made of silver sold to US sailors in China that's as rare as this Japanese boatswain pipe. I put them in a shadow box for the wall so they can be seen.

These are very hard to find in this condition!

No idea. Here is mine. It was $25 at the flea market.   Rich A. in Pa.

A really interesting thread!

No one!!! Come on folks, let's hear from you

Hi all,   Could this be French unit army markings? By style or letters. Period around 1910-20 as a guess.   Thank you

That's what I was thinking, it would take a lot of work to get this type of wear on a buckle. Yeah it's definitely not worth hundreds like originals.
