Sharing my favorite Pipe which occasionally emits fairly good amounts of Erinmore Tobacco on the burn.
It just so happens to be Bavarian Style with metal Edelweiss Flowers on it.
Your story gives me a whole new respect for it.

See mages of Opa with his pipe and my aunt on facebook and some rabbits... That sure looks like an edelweis.

Story has it that a besotted young man would risk his life climbing the Alps to find one to give to his love-interest.

I think your pipe is Swiss, as is the Edelweiss the national flower of Switzerland...
Bavarian pipes are longer.
