After 24 years in the Royal Navy, it looks like an old style Bosuns call used for piping the routines and ceremonial occasions on-board warships.

hope that helps :-)

Hi all,

My latest purchase at a car boot sale is this Ivory carving(which i think is very old) for a bargain price of £5. Any info from somebody a little more informed is appreciated.




Best regards
