Sorry unable to discount this item

Fabulous assortment of vintage Bakelite pipe stem rods. These were purchased 20 years ago from a huge well known pipe repair and manufacturing company. Some of them are undrilled stock that can be drilled to accommodate your pipe need. Different shapes and sizes and shades of amber and reddish and almost cherry amber. Some are clear prystal rootbeer, some creamy corn and some solid black and some are swirled photos up to light for reference, please ask questions and look at photos with the ruler to get sizes. Most are 2 inches long and 1/4 inch wide.
Lots of pieces, I did not count

These are amazing pieces of Pipe collector history having come from the original J.H. Lowe company family barn.
These were random short pieces I purchased in with tons of Bakelite rods for making stems. Now, I did find a couple that look like Knitting Needle ends... OR these could be incorporated as pieces in artisan jewelry.
I have a vision of these being made into a cool Fringe dangle necklace.
These are mostly in original cast condition, some have been drilled and polished, these would make an amazing dangle necklace or fabulous for pipes.
Advanced luxury pipe collectors prefer original vintage materials for restorations.

In any case these are an amazing little find.
