Value of opium pipes

Hi guys just wondering if anyone would know the approx value of an opium pipe like this?

 

Don't know the value but I wanted to add that you can't sell it on e bay. I had a Japanese tobacco pipe (long, made of wood and metal) that I tried to sell there, but I thought it was an opium pipe and advertised it as Antique Opium Pipe and my listing was taken down and I got a strike for trying to sell "drug paraphernalia". I later learned that it was a Japanese kiseru, but I never relisted it, just kept it. Another one like it had sold the week before and I was mystified as to why I was targeted and not the other listing. Lucky, I guess. Turns out it was from the Spanish American war era and belonged to a long past relative who brought it back. Ended up in my grandmother's things. Bottom line, no opium pipes on e bay.

FYI, Kiseru from wiki

Kiseru (煙管 kiseru) is a Japanese smoking pipe traditionally used for smoking kizami, a finely shredded tobacco product resembling hair. ... Because each kiseru is basically a rod with metal ends, extremely long kiseru could be carried as weapons, especially by the gangster-like kabukimono samurai of Edo period Japan.

 

No need to describe it as opium pipe to sell it...
It is a water pipe for tobacco , Chinese or Vietnamese

Lots of Asian pipes are wrongly called opium pipe
Opium has to be heated, not burned to get only the vaporised substance

Hi Kris,
It's a beautiful object and Kyratango is right. What you have is a water pipe and probably for tobacco or can I suggest possibly hashish. You will need to check the condition of your pipe carefully to determine its actual age. Similar items were sold across the world in their thousands about 20-30 years ago as decorative items. They quite regularly appear at auctions and in antique stores. They come from Vietnam where that gorgeous blue and white ceramic has been perfected over the centuries. The dragon fly is also very typical of Vietnamese ceramics. Think shipwrecks and export ceramics. Your pipe does seems to have some age to it. The band around the top looks old, but you would need to see inside the pot to help determine its age. Assuming its been used, look for water marks, accumulated stains, dust etc. Scratches to the surface and even smooth areas indicate a lot of handling. More pictures would be very helpful. I don't think Indianan Jones found anything like it in his adventures.

 

Both guys have opium pipes...but there between them is a tobacco water pipe...that everyone also calls an opium pipe....!!
I'd like a word with these guys !!!
