How dechipher Chinese (?) Writing in the former Buffalo opium water pipe?
While traveling in Laos, which I bought from a vendor, old pipe made from water buffalo horn. It is finely carved and what looks like Chinese writing that. I think this time it was used as an opium pipe. I asked a Chinese native freinds to translate, but it says that the characters are old and do not know. Are there resources that can look at an image of writing and translating this for me?
Take a picture of the computer and display it on the network. You use Chinese Cantonese and simplified Chinese writing. But in general, brands are in the stations, plants, articles and horoscopes. Often they are the calendars, almanacs and proverbs.
